Lewis Shiner (born December 30, 1950) is an American writer. Shiner began his career as a science fiction writer, but then identified with cyberpunk, and later wrote more mainstream novels, albeit often with magical realism and fantasy elements. He was formerly a resident of Texas (and a member of the Turkey City Writer's Workshop), and now lives in North Carolina. Shiner graduated from Southern Methodist University in 1973.〔http://smu.edu/english/events/marshterry/program.htm〕 Several of his novels have rock music as a theme or main focus, especially the musicians of the late 1960s; for example, Shiner's 1993 novel ''Glimpses'' considers the great never-recorded albums of The Doors, Brian Wilson, The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix. ''Say Goodbye: The Laurie Moss Story'' (1999) focuses on a fictional up-and-coming female musician and her subsequent fall back down. ''Slam'' (1990) is immersed in skate punk and anarchist culture. Perhaps because novels with music as a major theme are not generally considered mainstream genre material, his work has frequently been overlooked. He is a contributing author to the George R. R. Martin-edited anthology Wild Cards, notably creating that universe's most powerful character, the tantric sex magic wielding pimp, Fortunato. In July 2007 Shiner created the web site (Fiction Liberation Front (FLF) ) as a venue for his short stories. The stories are released under the Creative Commons license and are available in HTML and PDF formats. He has written a small (manifesto ) explaining why he did this. Since 2006, Shiner has been a card-carrying member of the radical labor union, the Industrial Workers of the World.〔https://www.scribd.com/doc/77024308/Industrial-Worker-Issue-1742-January-February-2012〕 On July 22, 2007, The News & Observer began publishing a weekly column by Shiner, titled "Graphic Scenes", about comics.〔 〕 ==Bibliography== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lewis Shiner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
