Jim Butler, President of Bastion Press.
Jim has a degree in both English and Business Management, and he seems to have plenty of opportunity to put both of them to work.
He previously worked as store manager of a ComputerLand franchise and managed convenience stores for a number of years as well.
Jim has spent more than 10 years working in the roleplaying game industry, starting with TSR in 1994 as a full-time employee and then transferring to the west coast to work with Wizards of the Coast after their acquisition of TSR in 1997.
He's written a number of game products, edited even more, and has spent the last three years or so plotting the course of Third Edition D&D as brand manager for all of the D&D campaign settings (Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, Ravenloft, and others).
He left in 2001 after managing the licensing relationship for Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro for all of the various D&D computer games.
He currently lives in Seattle, Washington with his dog (Storm) and an assortment of colorful characters he calls good friends.
