João Ventura

Bewildering Stories biography

to Bewildering Stories bibliography

João Ventura writes short fiction, which has appeared in several web sites, and also in printed form: Somnium, in Brazil; Dragão Quântico, Hyperdrivezine, Phantastes (Portuguese fanzines); Universe Pathways (in both the English and the Greek versions). He was one of 14 authors in A Sombra sobre Lisboa, an anthology of Lovecraftian short stories published last year by Saída de Emergência, in Lisbon.

He likes reading, writing (surprise!...), has a blog and he is a university professor (not necessarily in this sequence). He is married, with two children and he lives in Lisbon.

Those who read Portuguese can have a glance at some of his stuff in Das palavras o espaço.

Because as a fictionist he cannot be entirely trusted, he has asked me, João Ventura, to write this short bio for him.
