John Scalzi, a distinguished voice in American science fiction, has carved a niche for himself both online and in the literary world. Born on May 10, 1969, John’s journey began in the vibrant suburbs of Los Angeles—Glendora, Covina, and Claremont, to be precise. His high school years were shared with notable figures like the blogger John Marshall, culminating in their graduation from The Webb Schools of California in 1987. Pursuing higher education, John ventured to The University of Chicago, where his paths crossed with Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Auburn. During this transformative period, he briefly had Saul Bellow as a thesis advisor before transitioning to a pivotal role as the Student Ombudsman.

Post-graduation in 1991, John’s eclectic career took him from critiquing films for the Fresno Bee to spinning humor columns and finally to a pivotal stint at America Online. It was there he, alongside his beloved wife Kristine Ann Blauser, whom he married in 1995, embraced the burgeoning digital frontier. The late ’90s saw them settling in Ohio, a decision coinciding with John’s transition to full-time writing, following his 1998 layoff. Their family life flourished in Bradford, welcoming their daughter Athena Marie, and even their pets occasionally snagged the media spotlight!

Career Highlights

John’s literary debut, Old Man’s War, not only garnered critical acclaim but also sparked discussions of its parallels with Heinlein’s works. What began as an online serialization blossomed into a published masterpiece, setting the stage for a series of thought-provoking novels. Whether it was the humor-laced Agent to the Stars or the engaging sequels like The Ghost Brigades and Zoe’s Tale, John’s ability to intertwine humor, drama, and insightful commentary on the human condition shone brightly. His work, Redshirts, not only entertained but also earned the prestigious Hugo Award for Best Novel.

Beyond fiction, John’s versatility is evident in his non-fiction endeavors, from demystifying finance in The Rough Guide to Money Online to exploring the cosmos in The Rough Guide to the Universe. His insightful critique on sci-fi cinema in The Rough Guide to Sci-Fi Movies reflects his deep passion for the genre.

A Personal Touch Online

John’s blog, “Whatever,” has been a digital home for his eclectic interests, ranging from politics to the art of writing, since 1998. It’s more than just a blog; it’s a window into his thoughts, a platform for community engagement, and a space that celebrates the convergence of life, art, and everything in between. His candid, engaging online presence has not only garnered a loyal readership but also prestigious accolades, including the Hugo Award for Best Fan Writer.
