About William F. Wu

William F. Wu (born March 13, 1951, in Kansas City, Missouri) is a Chinese-American science fiction, fantasy, and crime author. He had his first professional fiction publication, a short story, published in 1977. Previous to that, he had letters published in comic books and articles in comics fanzines. Since then, Wu's traditionally published books include 13 novels, one scholarly work, and a collection of short stories. He has also brought out reprints and audio books through Boruma Publishing, including as of 2020 Intricate Mirrors, a collection of science fiction stories; Interlaced Pathways, a collection of contemporary fantasy stories; and 10 Analogs of the Future, of the ten collaborations Wu and Rob Chilson had published in Analog magazine. All include an introduction by the author(s) and afterwords following each story. His more than seventy published works of short fiction have been nominated for the Hugo Award twice individually and once as a member of the Wild Cards group of anthology writers; his work has been nominated for the Nebula Award twice and once for the World Fantasy Award. His short story "Goin' Down to Anglotown" was in the anthology The Dragon and the Stars, which won Canada's Aurora Award in the category of Best Related Work in English. "Goin' Down to Anglowtown" was also a finalist for the Sidewise Award. He is also the author of "Hong on the Range," a novel that incorporates his award-nominated short story "Hong's Bluff," and "MasterPlay," in 1987, about computer wargamers. The latter is based on his 1979 novelette "On the Shadow of a Phosphor Sheen," which was reprinted several times with the incorrect title of "On the Shadow of a Phosphor Screen." He has written eight novels using the Three Laws of Robotics invented by Isaac Asimov, including two entries in the Isaac Asimov's Robot City series, volumes 3 (Cyborg) and 6 (Perihelion). He also wrote all six novels in Isaac Asimov's Robots in Time series. The two series in Asimov's universe were written to Young Adult standards, though they are not labeled as such. The latter was the first series licensed from Asimov's estate after his death.
