Barton Paul Levenson (born May 9, 1960) is an American writer of science fiction, fantasy and the macabre.[1] He is author of eight novels and over 80 short stories, articles, reviews and other publications.
Background
Levenson was born in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He started writing in 1974. He is a 1983 graduate of the University of Pittsburgh. He became a Christian in 1984.[2] His first work of fiction was a short story, "Twenty Peasants", published in Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Magazine in 1991.[3] Levenson is a two-time winner of the "Confluence Science Fiction and Fantasy Short Story Contest" for "Virtual Bridges" and "Reality Forbidden".[4] He is a long-standing member of one of Pittsburgh's oldest science-fiction and fantasy writer's workshops, Carnegie-Mellon University-based Pittsburgh Worldwrights,[5] which includes Pittsburgh science fiction writer Kenneth Chiacchia among its members. He is a former member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.[6] Levenson's first separate novel in paperback format, I Will, was released in June 2010.[7] One of Levenson's characters, Khuminay, returned in "Khuminay and the Servant" in Cosmic Crime Stories and "Khuminay and the Axe-Wielding Psycho", which appeared in Electric Spec. This followed his novel Year of the Human.
Levenson's first peer-reviewed scientific article as sole author was published in 2011: "Planet Temperatures with Surface Cooling Parameterized" in Advances in Space Research 47, 2044–2048, a COSPAR Publication of Elsevier, cited below. Levenson's Japan-themed story: "Temple Cat", cited below, is reprinted in the charity anthology: "Healing Waves" from Sky Warrior Book Publishing and edited by Phyllis Irene Radford, who donated all proceeds from the sales to disaster relief in Japan.[8]
Style
Reviewers consider Levenson's writing complex.[9] [10]
Levenson's focus on science fiction started when he was eight years old, when his parents took him to the film 2001: A Space Odyssey[11] He described his writing process in a 2010 interview with author Sonya Clark, stating that he starts writing with either a broad plot outline in mind, or even one daydreamed scene. Often, the process will fail and the result is an incomplete work.[11]
Controversy
One of Levenson's most cited essays, "The Ideology of Robert A. Heinlein" [12] has been reprinted in several languages (See Essays below). Levenson argues that Heinlein was making a case for the value of fascism. Levenson has been writing about climate issues for many years. His colloquies can often be found on: "Real Climate" *"RealClimate: From blog to Science". Levenson, B.P. 2024. RealClimate[13] Levenson's first peer-reviewed scientific article as sole author was published in 2011: "Planet Temperatures with Surface Cooling Parameterized" in Advances in Space Research 47, 2044–2048, a COSPAR Publication of Elsevier [14] Levenson's Japan-themed story: "Temple Cat", cited below, is reprinted in the charity anthology: "Healing Waves" from Sky Warrior Book Publishing and edited by Phyllis Irene Radford, who is donating all proceeds from the sales to disaster relief in Japan.
