an ambitious leap to the State University at Austin. Followed
newspaper work on _The Dallas_ (Texas) _News_ and on _The New

romance and realism. The record to date is some forty or fifty

(10) KOMROFF, MANUEL. “Born in New York City in 1890 under protest
but in good humor. Tampered with schools and tried a college
or two under the impression that education was the mark of a
gentleman. Discovered his mistake. Travelled far across Siberia
and parts of China, and edited an English newspaper in Russia
during the Revolution. Married an Englishwoman in 1918 and tried
to support her by doing editorial work on newspapers.
He began writing stories through sheer obstinacy and still has the
same wife he started with. His first stories appeared in Reedy’s
Mirror and The Dial after they had been rejected in other
places, and in the face of everything he still keeps on writing
when he finds time. He now works for a book publisher, but has
an agreeable nature though a sharp and quick tongue.
In spite of his practical jokes his friends like him. He lives like
a fool and by so doing hopes to die a wise man.”

WILLOUGHBY, BARRETT. “I am an Alaskan, white, Irish, and a Miss
instead of a Mister. My first home was my father’s trading
schooner that cruised up and down the shores of Alaska. My
people now have a trading post in Alaska. I received my
education in a convent in the States, and from the traders,
trappers, Indians, explorers, scientists and sea-faring men
who make of my father’s store a sort of wilderness club in the
winter. I wanted to tell the world about my country and its
people, so I borrowed some money and came down to San Francisco
to begin in 1920. Went broke before my book was done. Became,
for a year and a half, secretary to Frederick O’Brien, the South
Sea writer. Then finished my book--‘Where the Sun Swings North,’
and I’ve been writing for myself ever since.”
