Timeline

1950

A review in Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine described it as "Steeped in the ambience of classic 1950's Galaxy magazine ... social satire, irreverent anti-establishmentarianism, and pseudo-hardboiled narration ... Golden writes with zest and good pacing ... a certain flippancy of characterization and delivery."

Golden's second novel, Better Than Chocolate (Zumaya Otherworlds), was a futuristic mystery with undertones of satire and social commentary.

It follows San Francisco Police Inspector Noah Dane, who, while hunting his partner's killer and investigating a pair of seemingly unrelated murders, uncovers a conspiracy that threatens all humanity.

A review in Asimov’s Science Fiction says that, "If Mickey Spillane had collaborated with both Frederik Pohl and Philip K. Dick, he might have produced Bruce Golden’s Better Than Chocolate."

Golden's third novel, Evergreen (Zumaya Otherworlds), is set on a fictional planet populated by majestic forests, ever-changing auroras, and the ursu, a primate-like species that may have once achieved sentience.

A review in SFFWorld.com mentioned "believably tormented characters, unique world-building, realistic dialogue, adventure, exploration, alien lifeforms...".

In addition to his novels, Golden has sold more than 100 short stories, published across nine countries in publications including Pedestal, Oceans of the Mind, Odyssey, Digital Science Fiction, Postscripts, Penumbra, and Nemonymous.

1952

He taught a course in magazine article writing at SDSU.

Golden began his professional writing career as a freelance journalist, publishing more than 200 magazine and newspaper articles from in-depth profiles to feature stories to satirical commentary.

1977

His first sale as a writer was a story on Black's Beach, at the time the only legal nude beach in the country, which was published by The Progressive in 1977.

1986

However, the program was cancelled before the script could be produced, so Golden rewrote it as the short story "Common Time", which became a semi-finalist in L. Ron Hubbard’s Writers of the Future contest.

An augmented version of the story was published many years later in the U.S. magazine Brutarian, as well as publications in Romania, Greece, Canada, and England.
