Welcome to the official website of writer Scott William Carter. My first novel, The Last Great Getaway of the Water Balloon Boys, is forthcoming from Simon and Schuster.  (Read more about it here.)

My short stories have appeared in Analog, Asimov’s, Ellery Queen, Weird Tales, and Realms of Fantasy, among other venerable places. I live in Oregon’s Willamette Valley with my wife and two young children.

You can also read my biography for more information about me, or read my occasional mutterings. If you’d like to read my fiction, check out my online bookstore, where you’ll even find some short stories posted online for free.
