UR Staff

The UR Staff
By Jordan Calvary

The UR Staff is currently made up of eight people: (in Alphabetical order) Jordan Calvary, Ralph Davis, Ron Jacobs, Susan Lee, Sarah Macy, Joe Marcus, Edward Smith and John Sanders. These men and woman are here for one purpose to bring you the latest news about RB's Universe. We started in November of 2007 and had some technical difficulties but now we are back and it's time for you to get to know the writers and editors of this fan production.

(By seniority)
  1. Ralph Davis (Editor 'n Chief)

    Ralph Davis started this as a senior project but was told that it would not fit the bill for a Journalism Major's senior project so he kept it going and started something else on the side. (He may post that here at a later date).

    He is a Journalist Major at the Utah State University and is working this as a tribute to RB. He thoroughly enjoys the stories in the RB's Universe and has gotten to see a lot of material that no one else has.

  2. Ron Jacobs (Article Editor & Literature Reviewer)

    Ron Jacobs is also a Journalism Major at Utah State and a close friend of Mr. Davis. He decided to join Mr. Davis on this publication when he was looking for things to do during his spare time. With ninety percent of his credits already finished he has a lot of spare time to work with.

    He is the only person on the staff to have read the entire Forced War Draft 1 and is very proud of this. Every one else has gotten to read the first five chapters of Draft 2 but he got the entirety of Draft 1. "Being the Literature Reviewer has it's perks," he said in response to a nasty question thrown his way by Sarah Macy. (who was the original writer of the story that brought the Novel to everyone's attention.)

  3. Joe Marcus (Content Editor)

    Joe Marcus and Ralph Davis have been friends for longer than either one of them can remember. He is a Tech Major at Utah State and originally started to help Mr. Davis with this because of their deep friendship. Later, about 5 months ago, he actually got into the stories himself and can't wait to get his hands on a copy of Forced War.

    He is now working on a server system that the team can move this Fanzine too. As well as a program to make the zine into a zine.

  4. Sarah Macy (News Writer)

    A long time friend of Ralph Davis, and now Fiancée of Mr. Davis, she says she will follow him anywhere. She is also an Admirer of RB because he is, "six years younger and already doing what I want to do." A long time writing enthusiast she is working on a book of her own that she hopes to get as much support with as RB has gotten with his so far.

  5. Jordan Calvary (Writer & Internal Affairs Reporter)
    By Sarah Macy

    Jordan got started on RB's Universe through his online friendship with Susan Lee. He then got in touch with UR through a series of e-mails that are now called the Internal Affairs Reports by the Staff. He seemed to do a very good job at gathering intel and finally asked the fateful question of if he could join the staff in our second issue. He has been added as the "Internal Affairs Reporter" meaning that he will write articles about: Internal Affairs.

    He has been gathering info for this article for about four months and seems to be very happy to finally post it.

  6. Susan Lee (RB's Universe Specialist)

    Susan Lee is a close personal friend of RB and as such is the RB's Universe Specialist. She is our go to gal when we need someone to have some face time with RB or we need RB to answer a question immediately. She is also slated as the RB's Universe Group Specialist because she is the one who has spent the most time with RB and knows about it. She is also working on writing a story of her own set in the Imonoran Empire. (The lucky woman has the access to all of RB's resources.)

  7. Edward Smith (Universal Writer)

    Edward Smith is a new addition of to the staff as of April and he is the one that suggested this for the Fanzine. The UR Staff is very thankful to him for setting this up for UR.

  8. John Sanders (Universal Writer)

    Another new addition as of April. He you will be seeing his immense writing talents in the months to come. He is a close friend of Jordan Calvary.
