From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hank Stine (born 1945) was an American science fiction editor and writer.

Hank Stine is understood to be a nom-de-guerre of Jean Marie Stine. Stine published a number of science fiction novels in the late 1960 and early 1970s, beginning with Season of the Witch in 1968, which was later filmed as Synapse. Later, Stine took over the position of editor of Galaxy after the departure of John J. Pierce in 1979, and edited two issues of the magazine. Stine was Editor-in-Chief of the science fiction and fantasy Starblaze line for The Donning Co./Publishers from 1979 to 1983, publishing many now classic and controversial titles such as Marion Zimmer Bradley's Ruins of Isis. For a number of years, she worked as senior editor specializing in self-help titles for publisher, Jeremy P. Tarcher. Stine's own non-fiction books include Empowering Your Life with Runes, and Writing Successful Self-Help/How-To Books. More recently Stine has returned to writing short stories. Two recent ebook collections of Stine's work are Herstory & Other Science Fictions and Trans-Sexual: Tales for Gender Queers. Stine currently serves as editor and associate publisher of Renaissance E Books, which issues classic and contemporary popular fiction in ebook format.^{[citation needed]}
