As a young boy, Wulf Moon feasted on fantasy as a child when he lived with his Ojibwe Native American grandmother—a traditional oral storyteller. He begged stories from her every night and usually got his wish―fireside tales that fired his imagination. If Moon had a time machine, those are the days he would go back to. Since he doesn’t have a time machine, he tells his own stories.
Moon wrote his first science fiction story when he was fifteen. His story, “The Last Ray of Light”, won the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards national competition. It became his first professional sale when it was subsequently published in the May 18, 1978 issue of Science World (which had a circulation at the time of over 500,000 copies each issue). He’s had the privilege of being represented by Donald Maass, selling to a Star Trek anthology, writing the conclusion to one of Nora Roberts’ romance novellas, and being published in numerous anthologies.
He won Second Place in the 2018 fourth quarter L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future contest and has won over forty writing awards. Moon’s stories have appeared in numerous publications, including Writers of the Future Vol.35, Best of Deep Magic 2, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2, Galaxy’s Edge, and the Game On! anthology from Joshua Palmatier at Zombies Need Brains.
His series on writing is a regular feature in DreamForge magazine. Moon teaches the Super Secrets of Writing Workshops and is the author of The Illustrated Super Secrets of Writing and How To Write a Howling Good Story.
