This is the home page for the writings of scott virtes.
I've been writing fiction & poetry since I was a kid, and my first
story was published in 1986. This page will give you pointers
to all my stuff on the web, and the latest news about what I'm working
on, and where my writing can be found.

| James Award - 2008-05-01 I just won a James B. Baker Award for nonfiction for an article of mine ("Unusual Vampire Lore" in Hungur magazine). This is one of the bigger small press awards out there, so it's fun for me. The irony is that after getting no recognition of any kind for the 450+ stories and poems I've had published (okay - one Pushcart nomination) ... after only about 10 articles, there it is. More info in in the May 2008 issue of Expressions.

Cool milestones: in 1997 I wrote my 200th story.
And in 1999 I wrote my 500,000th word of short fiction. Half a million
words, and my fingers are still going. The human body is quite a miraculous
thing. You'd think I'd be tired by now.
