About meLawrence M. Schoen holds a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology, with a special focus in psycholinguistics. He spent ten years as a college professor, and has done extensive research in the areas of human memory and language. His background in the study of the behavior and the mind provide a principal metaphor for his fiction. He currently works as the director of research and chief compliance officer for a series of mental health and addiction treatment facilities. He's also one of the world's foremost authorities on the Klingon language, having championed the exploration of this constructed tongue and lectured on this unique topic throughout the world. In 2006 He started Paper Golem, a speculative fiction small press. In 2007 he was a finalist for the John W. Campbell Award for best new writer. In 2009 Hadley Rille Books published his novel BUFFALITO DESTINY. He lives in Blue Bell, PA with his wife, Valerie, who is neither a psychologist nor a speaker of Klingon.

About my libraryI've been collecting books from earliest childhood, though most everything got "purged" when I went off to graduate school in 1983. Since then, in an effort to keep the books from taking over the house, I've tried to follow one rule: to only buy hard bound, first editions. Even so, the books are starting to take over... good thing I've moved into a bigger house!
