Drippe (Dagenais):
Therese was still a teenager when she got involved with our FADING SHADOWS
magazines. Her mother, Colleen Drippe was already writing SF stories for our
magazines. Therese has an abundance of talent, both as a writer and artist. I
believe we used some of her art in our magazines, in fact. She and Tom
coauthored a Black Bat novelette, Crimson Harvest, which first appeared in
DOUBLE DANGER TALES #31 (September 1999), then again in TALES OF MASKS &
MAYHEM V #1 (2005). She also wrote a story for CLASSIC PULP FICTION STORIES
#40, and DETECTIVE MYSTERY STORIES #8. We are still in touch with both Colleen
and Therese. Marriage and family have curtailed Therese’s writing and artistic
endeavors, though I believe she has worked on some of her mother’s SF covers.
With her talent, I don’t believe we’ve seen the last of Therese. She can still
write new pulp stories like a pro, and I bet she’ll be back some day with a
real thriller.
