The Facts in the Case of J. Edward Tremlett:
J. Edward... is. You could say that without a trace of irony, as - unlike a certain scientist's quasi-hypothetical cat - he's quite out of the box. And he may be out of his mind, too.
The Facts are these.
30 years old as of March of 2001. Born in Norfolk, VA, interrupting his father's favorite Disney show in the process. Moved to Ohio a scant while later, where he stayed for most of the rest of his younger life.
Educated - both with and without irony - in Dublin, Ohio. Found a home at Ohio University in scenic, wet Athens, Ohio. Loved it so much that after graduating with a degree in Creative Writing, and a stint as a Bookseller, he came back for a degree in Political Communications. He'd like everyone to know that the second degree was a lot like the first degree, only he got to lie more.
While performing for the second degree, he met the lovely lady who was to be his wife. She is an English Teacher with a specialty in teaching it as a second/foreign language, and has taught in Japan and Poland prior to their marriage.
Since their marriage, they've lived in Chong-Ju, South Korea (Both: Teaching English), Weyauwega, WI (Recuperating from SK, working menial jobs waiting for another stint) and Dubai, United Arab Emirates (She: teaching English. He: Househusband/Library Assistant). They've been in Dubai for 3 years now, and have plans to stay another 3, Goddess willing.
Answers to questions you have to guess at? Don't mind if we do...
Egyptian with tendencies towards the Erisian when the former fails, or seems too stuffy. Legomaniac. A sucker for punishment.
Anything but lima beans and peas, with a definite appreciation for sushi and arabic food, though not at the same time. Cats. Green. Sam Adams if they've got it and Fosters if they don't. H.P. Lovecraft and Clive Barker. Alan Moore and Warren Ellis. Call of Cthulhu, Delta Green and Wraith: the Oblivion. A nice house where he can have solitude, but with modern conveniences not too terribly far away.
Intolerance. Ignorance. People with small minds, incorrect information or facts stretched out of proportion. Yappy dogs with impossible, French names. Anyone who can beat him at the "but when you say blah-blah-blah, don't you really mean, blah-blah-blah?" game.
Cthulhu Jim. Peeping Jim. Reggies' Ghost. Ialdaloboth. Bookmonkey. Trenchcoat Tremlett. Weirrrrrrrrr-doooooo.
J.'s fiction, RPG work, art, distorted political missives and humor have also seen print in The International American, Pyramid Magazine, Ex Libris Nocturnis and Rock Out Censorship Magazine.
He is currently the webmaster for The Wraith Project - a fan-based effort to keep White Wolf's "Wraith: the Oblivion" going on after its unfortunate cancellation.
You can also visit his homepage - Ialdaloboth's Tomb and read his Livejournal if you're feeling somewhat curious, or masochistic. Or not. . ***
