SHAUN RAYMOND HOADLEY

Beyond Thirty

In my reckless youth great tales I read
Of the lands beyond the 30th parallel.
Of warriors and kings and wizards long dead
And of the eternal battle between heaven and hell.

I climbed every tier, swung through every forest
Clinging tightly to the vines of imagination.
Towering cities of silver, of gold and of amethyst
And on the heels of Lastrade to mysterious destination.

I survived the holocaust, in my ship from Krypton
My father taught me the tongue of the great apes
I licked frosting from the bowl at my mothers apron.
I flew to the stars on wings of sorcerers magic capes!

I’ve been Gulliver and Kickaha and Balthus and Enoch
And Merlin and Francis Burton and Korak the Killer
An immortal holy warrior reborn in every epoch.
A Vulcan at the helm and an Ishmael at the tiller!

Shaun Raymond Hoadley was born in Kalamazo, Michigan on October 11, 1952 to Vernon and Beryl Hoadley. His parents, not unlike a Burroughs story, met during World War II in London, England during the Blitz, and fell in love after Vernon saved Beryl's life! Shaun has three siblings... two older brothers and a younger sister. The brothers are both writers and artists, as is Shaun, and the oldest, Julian is a published author, while Guy is a prominent attorney.
Shaun has had several shows of his work, and has had pieces published in Fanzines as well as professional publications, advertising and more. His work includes all of the illustrations used in the motion picture "High Strung" with Steve Odekirk and Jim Carey, business card designs for several businesses in Ojai, California, and artwork for a video game called "Star Island." He has also done web-page design for several companies. His interests include art, Harley Davidson motorcycles, collecting Edgar Rice Burroughs 1st editions and eating good food! He currently resides in Lake Balboa, California (right next to Tarzana!) and is often in the company of his lady, Pamela Cupp, who is a brilliant artist in her own right!
Jerry Schneider of ERBVille Press has commissioned him to work on many of the ERB Uniform Limited Edition Hardcover Series editions: The Man-Eater (4 black & white interior illustrations, 1 color frontispiece/DJ), The Cave Girl (4 b/w interiors), The Cave Man (4 b/w interiors), "Lost Inside the Earth" (magazine version of At the Earth's core) (cover/frontispiece), The Mad King (4 b/w interiors), Barney Custer of Beatrice (4 b/w interiors), The Rider (4 b/w interiors), The Oakdale Affair (cover/frontispiece and 4 b/w interiors)
