"I'm just getting started. I intend to continue
writing for another 20 years. Right now, I'm planning
new Logan novels, new
biographies, new short stories, new essays--and
new poems.
To quote an old saying: 'You ain't seen nothin' yet!' I appreciate the support of
every fan and reader. Always remember, I'm writing for YOU." --William F. Nolan |
While it is not
usual custom to tout my own books, I'm making an exception with my
collection, HAVE YOU SEEN THE WIND?
Out in a handsome trade paperback this May from a new publisher, Bear
Manor Media. The price is just $17.00 - and this includes
shipping!
The book is unique -- the first to combine my fiction and verse under a
single cover (Six uncollected short stories, one of which was written
just for this book, and 27 of my best poems, many brand new.)
Contact Phantom Bookshop (e-mail
or call us at 805-641-3844) when you send in your check or order
from the publisher.

"He
makes a permanent dent in our memories. Nolan is able to create an
atmosphere of ultimate terror, causing readers to live out his
nightmares."-
Ray Bradbury |
"William
F. Nolan is a hell of a writer! I have real admiration for his stories."
-Peter Straub |
| He's
incredibly talented. Each of his stories is like a psychiatric session
from which the reader comes away knowing more about the human condition,
due to Nolan's fascination with the topography of emotional torment and
his infallible rendering of the troubled psyche." ---Richard
Christian Matheson |
|
"Nolan is a prime communicator..

ambitious book, for in Ships in the Night Nolan tackles no less a topic

Nolan-Literary Genius

From the February 1999 article by Tim Sinniger in 
Magazine
I
call him the Human
Dynamo.
William
F. Nolan is one of the most versatile and productive talents of this
century, and if you think that’s hyperbole, just consider his
credits as novelist, short story writer, poet,
biographer, literary critic, speech writer, lecturer, essayist,
technical writer, editor, bibliographer, columnist, film and
television scriptwriter, actor, teacher and
cartoonist/illustrator.
The bare statistics
of William F. Nolan’s career give serious pause to any
collector. How do you collect a writer who’s been printed in 650
magazines and newspapers under a dozen names around the world,
whose works are represented in 300 anthologies and textbooks in over
400 editions, whose books-in a variety of global editions
from 85 publishers-number more than 200, who has ghosted speeches
and letters for everyone from former Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley
to President Bill Clinton?
Although best known as a science
fiction writer (for his most famous book, Logan’s
Run), Nolan has distinguished himself in a
dozen other genres, including mystery/suspense, horror, fantasy,
auto racing, aviation, show business, Westerns and hard-boilers.
He has also written for radio, the stage and for comic books
(carrying on the adventures of Mickey Mouse for Walt Disney).
His Logan's
Run book is now recognized as a
genuine science fiction classic, and has spawned a major MGM movie,
a CBS television series, a Books-On-Tape audio, an augmented laser
disc, two comic book series, fan clubs, special magazines, a host of
reprint editions around the world and (thus far) two sequels written
solo by Nolan.
And, more than three decades after he
was launched by Dial Press, Logan is running faster than ever. A
blockbuster high-budget, high-tech remake of Logan's Run
is in pre-production at Warner Bros., and Nolan has plotted three new
Logan novels.
