About Jamie Todd Rubin
Hi! I’m Jamie Todd Rubin. I am a writer. I write code, fiction, and nonfiction, and I’ve been writing this blog for twenty years now.
My fiction has appeared in many of the leading science fiction magazines, and several anthologies. I am an active member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association.
My nonfiction has appeared in the science fiction magazines as well as places like The Daily Beast, Fatherly, and 99U.
By day, I am an application architect and project manager. I started with a great company 3 months after graduating from college and more than 30 years later, I’m still there, enjoying the work I do. I occasionally make software outside of work, and that can sometimes be found on GitHub.
I’m an avid reader, reading all kinds of books, and marking them up with notes and highlights, much to the dismay of friends. But I believe you need to make a book your own, that they should be interactive, and that interaction sometimes takes place in the margins. Here is a list of everything I’ve read since 1996. And another list, culled from memory, of books I’ve read prior to 1996
Today, I live in Arlington, Virginia with my wife and three children.
A few other interesting facts:
- I was a private pilot, flying Cessnas in the skies above Los Angeles at the turn of the century.
- I’ve been interviewed on LifeHackers “How I Work” series.
- For several years, I was Evernote’s ambassador for paperless lifestyle. I wrote a popular series of posts about Evernote here on the blog.
Here is a much shorter bio.
