=================================================================== Robert Stanek's Life and Work: A Brief Look =================================================================== ==================================================================== Robert Stanek served in the military, earned the Distinguished Flying Cross and many other honors, then embarked on a distinguished career as a writer. Today he is one of the most highly respected how-to writers in the world. His work has sold millions of copies and been translated into a dozen languages. Yet the work that he is most proud of has languished in relative obscurity.
That work, 20 years of writings about a fantastic place called Ruin Mist, is complete with thousands and thousands of pages of stories and history -- most of which Stanek has said publicly will never see print and some of which has already been lost (a computer virus destroyed nearly half of Stanek's writings). David Brubaker who interviewed Robert Stanek recently told Reagent Press that he and thousands of other fans aren't going to let this happen. The histories and the stories have to be published he says. Let readers decide if they want them -- and he thinks they will want them.
Brubaker says it's no accident that the Ruin Mist books are starting to explode in popularity. Readers are vocal and loyal. They've created dozens of Internet fan sites, the Top 25 of which can be accessed through http://uptowngirl17.tripod.com/. All it would take, says Brubaker, for this to be the bestselling series in history is for one of the large U.S. publishers to wake up and smell the roses.
The complete text of Brubaker's interview with Robert Stanek is available online (http://www.tvpress.com/interviewsandarticles.htm) and can be freely reprinted provided the following credit is given:
