Ion Newcombe (Nuke) is the editor and publisher of AntipodeanSF, Australia’s longest running online speculative flash fiction magazine, regularly issued since January 1998. He has been a zealous reader and occasional author of SF short stories since his childhood in the 1960s. “Nuke” lives in the holiday seaside town of Nambucca Heads, where he is self-employed in IT training, electronic repairs, computer support, desktop publishing, editing, writing, and website implementation. Ion is also the resident tech-head, skeptic and vice-president of community radio station 2NVR, Nambucca Valley Radio, where he produces The AntipodeanSF Radio Show and podcast. When not working or broadcasting, Nuke is an avid dragon boater, a maker of origami dragons, and occasional dabbler in amateur radio.
