Although he was born an introvert, he learned to reach outside himself and connect with others like him. His friends say Scott’s brain works a little differently – he sees relationships between things that others miss, and gets more done in a day than most folks manage in a week.


And if he was lucky enough, someone else would want to read the things he wrote. He would subvert them and remake them to his own ends. If there weren’t many gay characters in his favorite genres, he would reimagine them himself, populating them with a diverse universe of characters. But as he grew up and read the golden age classics and more modern works as well, he began to wonder where all the people like him were.Īfter he came out at twenty three, he decided that it was time to create the kinds of stories he couldn’t find at Waldenbooks. Indoctrinated into fantasy and sci fi by his mother at the tender age of nine, he devoured her library. He has always inhabited the space between the here and now and the what could be. Scott lives with his husband of 25 years in a leafy Sacramento, California suburb, in a little yellow house with a brick fireplace and a couple pink flamingoes out front.
