We had around 20 titles, and Richard had to read every one of those stories and comment and make changes. There were a couple of guys in California, one who wrote</i> The Kilroys <i>who was very good. Richard rarely wrote for the supernaturals. They, by all odds, were the most difficult ones to write.<br /><br />I wrote the supernaturals and science-fictions and the love stories, which were the easiest to write. Stop to think, when you're doing ten magazines a month, it was all Richard could do to keep up with just reading, because you didn't use all the stuff that came in.</i><br /><br />Later on ACG became the proverbial one-man band, and when they listed writers like Shane O'Shea and Zev Zimmer, etc., they were all pen-names for Hughes.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-36243165511296093712009-06-16T16:49:16.199-07:002009-06-16T16:49:16.199-07:00beautiful Williamsonfrazetta! I love the old pain...beautiful Williamsonfrazetta! I love the old painter's trick they inheritedly employ by creating a sense of relief, or space, around a head shot using arcing hatch strokes.
