AUTHORS > STEVE LIBBEY
 Steve Libbey was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, a few months before mankind landed on the moon, and ever since his head has been elsewhere. He tricked the University of Cincinnati into giving him an English degree (cum laude, according to those who bothered to attend the graduation ceremony; this is unsubstantiated) while he played guitar in manifold rock bands.
The lure of easy work, first as a graphic designer, then a teacher of computer graphics, and finally web design — and let’s not forget about rock and roll — distracted him from serious writing until he moved to Portland, Oregon from Atlanta to escape a major label record contract. He succeeded.
It was during this flirtation with the music industry that Steve befriended Mercedes Lackey, and the two began to collaborate casually on some superheroic fiction, which eventually evolved into The Secret World. Meanwhile, he’s putting the final touches on his debut novel, The Bloodbaths, a story of a plumber in dark times, and plotting the second book in the Aqua Pura Trilogy, The Quartz Odalisque.
Steve occasionally plays guitar with a seven piece funk band. He has been spotted around Portland with a one-eyed pug.
