Publication List

In total I've written or co-written 54 books; edited or co-edited about thirty; done plot outlines for another twenty-odd, the books themselves being written by another author. I don't count reissues, whether or not they're expanded, nor recompilations in these figures. I've sold over a hundred stories.

The following are books for which I wrote an outline of from 5K to 15K words. Another writer then did the real work of developing the outline into a novel. I'm listed as co-author on most of these--the exception is Crown of Empire--but I don't consider my involvement to be that of a real co-author. (Some of the writers disagree.)

CRISIS OF EMPIRE AN HONORABLE DEFENSE (Baen/1988) (by Thomas T Thomas)
CLUSTER COMMAND (Baen/1989) (by W C Dietz)
THE WAR MACHINE (Baen/1989) (by Roger MacBride Allen)
CROWN OF EMPIRE (Baen/1993) (by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro)

THE GENERAL (All books written by S M Stirling)
THE FORGE (Baen/1991)
THE HAMMER (Baen/1992)
THE ANVIL (Baen/1993)
THE STEEL (Baen/1993)
THE SWORD (Baen/1995)

GENERAL FOLLOW-ON SERIES Dave's comments
THE CHOSEN (Baen/1996) (by S M Stirling)
THE REFORMER (Baen/1996) (by S M Stirling)
THE TYRANT (Baen/2002) (by Eric Flint)

TERRA NOVA
ENEMY OF MY ENEMY (Baen/1996) (by Ben Ohlander)
A second book in this series was not only plotted but was written by the same author, however it will probably not see the light of day.

BELISARIUS (All books written by Eric Flint)
AN OBLIQUE APPROACH (Baen/1998)
IN THE HEART OF DARKNESS (Baen/1998)
DESTINY'S SHIELD (Baen/1999)

THE TIDE OF VICTORY (Baen/2001)
A final volume for the series (THE DANCE OF TIME) is plotted; Eric has the writing scheduled. Check Eric's web site at http://www.ericflint.net.


ODDS AND ENDS: this section covers books which I've been involved with but which I don't count in my list of new works. Most of them are recompilations of material which has already been counted in the main list.
