Aaron Rosenberg Interview With StarTrekBookClub.com
Aaron Rosenberg has been going to Shore Leave for about 15 years. He’s based in NYC and is among a group of authors that would routinely get together for lunch and most of them were already going to the show and they convinced him to go to the show. One of the cooler parts of our conversation was the bit were we talked about the science stuff that happens at the show, everything from bottle rockets to astronomy (and the Hubble team is going to be there this year!). He’s written for many familiar properties including Warhammer, Starcraft, Stargate: Atlantis, Eureka, X-Files, Deadlands, and the one that owns my heart: Star Trek, specifically the SCE series.
He’s published over 54 novels, has 70 some odd RPG credits, 12 children’s books, 12 educational books, and over 65 short stories. He’s not just a writer though, he’s also been doing book layout as a day job on an off again for about 20 years. We spend an appropriately long time talking about the importance of fonts, layout choices, and layout designs. He first started as an RPG writers, but doesn’t currently have any work with the ongoing Modiphius series, but did do work for Last Unicorn when they had the license.
His most recent book is Cases by Candlelight, a collection of Sherlock Holmes adventures by some pretty familiar names. Coming soon will be his new series “BEO: Bureau of Eldrich Oversight” in which an agent of the Bureau is stationed in a backwater station, is angry at being put on the back burner, but then as things tend to go in stories like these, not everything is what it appears.
We talk about his membership in the IAMTW and how the organization came to be, and that the association is now publishing their own series of anthologies, written by the talented members.
