Moby Dick's Home Page

May 27, 2007 - Sundancer's Fairy Tale, a second Sundancer story has been posted.

I'd like to invite you to visit Robinson's Place on Delphi Forums, a site based on the traditions of Spider Robinson's Callahan's Crosstime Saloon books. The message board contains a Creative Writing folder where I've posted some of my own writing. I'm using the webspace I get for my Delphi Plus membership as the website for Robinson's Place. In addition to photos of Spider in Seattle, you'll find photos of Spider at a reading in Vancouver, BC there. Thanks to Peg from Canada for opening Robinson's. A while back, Peg turned over the reins to me.

Who's Moby?

By the way, my name's Dick Wales. I live in the Portland, Oregon area after moving from Massachusetts in the summer of 2000. I used to do typesetting, then I spent 11 years paginating newspapers.

After an online friend suggested the nickname Moby to me back in 1991, I've used it in several BBSes, chat rooms, and forums. I'm Dick to people who have met me offline, Moby to those who've met me online, even if we meet offline.
