Barbara Doran is a New Pulp writer of SF and Fantasy with Airship 27. A list of her works can be found over here.
Barbara came by her love of reading early. Thanks to her father, she was quickly introduced to S.J. Perelman and P.G. Wodehouse, as well as Heinlein and Asimov. (She take full blame for her adoration of Fantasy, however.)
Reading inevitably lead to writing. Beginning with fanfiction, she soon graduated to original works, some of which can still be found online if searched for by a dedicated investigator. Being of Chinese descent and something of a Wuxia and Xianxia fan, much of her work is influenced by Shaw Brothers’ movies and the like.
Pulp titles like “The Shadow” and “Doc Savage” were among her early influences. She also adores “The Green Hornet” TV series, in part because of Bruce Lee and in part because it was ahead of its time when it came to how it treated minorities.
Barbara has two sons, a husband and not enough time in the day for everything she likes to do. Her age is old enough and continues to increase daily.
When Barbara isn’t chasing about on her appointed rounds, she’s generally home writing. She can be reached for comment at BarbaraDoran@sumergoscriptum.com.
