Edo van Belkom

[1] Early in his career, he admired writers such as Kurt Vonnegut and Ray Bradbury before deciding that the horror genre was the best fit for him.

He has published about 200 stories[8] of science fiction, fantasy, horror and mystery in such magazines as Parsec, Storyteller, On Spec and RPM, and the anthologies Northern Frights 1, 2, 3, 4, Shock Rock 2, Fear Itself, Hot Blood 4, 6, Dark Destiny, Crossing the Line, Truth Until Paradox, Alternate Tyrants (where his story "The October Crisis" was featured), The Conspiracy Filed, Brothers of the Night, Robert Bloch's Psychos, The Year's Best Horror Stories 20 and Best American Erotica 1999.

[9] Van Belkom has been described by the Vancouver Sun as "one of Canada's leading writers of erotica",[10] mostly under the pseudonym Evan Hollander.

[11] Outside of the horror genre, for several years he wrote a magazine serial for Truck News that recounts the adventures of a former private investigator who becomes a trucker.

[1] In 1997, he won the Bram Stoker Award for Short Fiction from the Horror Writers Association for "Rat Food" (co-authored with David Nickle).
