Autorenporträt
American pulp science fiction author Homer Eon Flint (born Homer Eon Flindt; 1888-1924) wrote both novels and short stories. In 1912, he started writing the scenes for silent movies (perhaps at his wife's urging). He released "The Planeteer" in All-Story Weekly in 1918. Ace Books reprinted his "Dr. Kinney" novellas in 1965, and he co-wrote the book The Blind Spot with Austin Hall. He passed away in 1924 under unexplained circumstances; his body was discovered at the bottom of a gorge, beneath a cab that had been taken. The Ancient Astronaut Society was co-founded by his son, Max Hugh Flindt (1915-2004). Together with Otto Binder, he co-wrote Mankind - Child of the Stars in 1974. Bonnie Palmer is the name of his daughter. When he either disappeared or was killed, my mother was not even six years old, yet she still mourns the passing of his brilliant mind and cuddly lap. His oldest child and only son, Max, has spent a significant portion of his life developing and promoting his theory of evolution. Max has a love for both scientifically plausible and mysterious phenomena.
