Aaron B. Larson: Aaron was one of those writers we met when I was writing for Clancy O’Hara’s PULP FICTION magazine. He came over to our FADING SHADOWS stable to continue when Clancy’s magazine went under. A big fan of Robert E. Howard’s westerns, he created his own weird western hero, Haakon Jones, and wrote several dozen stories for our magazines. These were later collected in a beautiful hardback edition. Aaron was a teacher, a stage director, and a musician. He wanted to make it big as a writer, but died before reaching his goal. We had the pleasure of visiting with Aaron and his family as they were passing through the area one year. He was good at everything he did, and would have been an equally good novelist.
