Raymond Obstfeld
published his first novel, The Goulden Fleece, when he was 24. His

Writers of America. Although he has published extensively under his
own name, he has also written under the pseudonyms Pike Bishop (the
Western series Diamondback), Jason Frost (the futuristic series
Warlord), Carl Stevens (a mystery series), Don Pendleton (the
Executioner series), and Laramie Dunaway (Hungry Women, Borrowed
Lives, and Lessons in Survival). He wrote the award-winning

fiction series "Streetball Crew".
As a screenwriter, Obstfeld adapted his novel Dead Heat for Michael
Keaton and his novel Warlord for Arnold Schwarzenegger and Robert
Hamner. His original scripts include various genres, from romantic
comedy (Mr. Moonlight) to caper-comedy (Foolproof) to teen action
(The Joker and the Thief) to cop dramas (Tangled Up in Blue and
Gambol's Luck). He has rewritten original screenplays for Paramount
(Sword Fight) and Don "the Dragon" Wilson (Whatever It Takes). Most
recently he has rewritten the scripts Whackers and Robodog for
Thornbush Entertainment. His adaptation of his novel, Joker and the
Thief, is being developed by Chartoff Productions.
He is a contributing editor for Writer's Digest. He has also
published two instructional books on writing, The Novelist's
Essential Guide to Crafting Scenes and Fiction First Aid. In
addition, he has several books due in the coming years, including
