A. J. Campbell

A.J. Campbell is a writer-artist-publisher. He was a department editor for Salt Water Sportsman magazine for 25 years. His SWS "Collector's Corner" and "Fishing Collectibles" columns reached an international audience, including Britain, Australia, and Japan. All of his writing contains humor.

He is the author of hundreds of magazine articles and has written two non-fiction titles-- Successful Shark Fishing and Classic & Antique Fly Tackle. He also wrote the extremely silly King Shag's Recipe Book with the late Bill Harris.

Campbell's premiere novel was The Demon's Door Bolt. One reviewer called it, "Mel Brooks does Spartacus," a sci-fi/fantasy tale where handicapped warriors battle the evil Daemon and his one-eyed men. His latest book-- Forging the Blade-- takes place in the mid-4th century, a pre-Arthurian epic of the "sword in the stone."

Today, A.J. continues to write historically-based fiction and sci-fi. At present, he is an active Roman reenactor and Certified Archery Instructor, teaching Asian steppe-bow techniques to middle-schoolers. He lives in Maine, U.S.A, planet Earth. Heaven can wait.
