Paul Kibble is an author/editor with over 30 years of experience in diverse venues ranging from medical reporting and technical writing to speechwriting and advertising copywriting. This professional shape-shifting has been variously interpreted as either a mark of versatility or evidence of high-functioning attention deficit disorder. Neither interpreation is, of course, mutually exclusive, since what passes for wide-ranging curiosity may in fact mask an almost pathological boredom. Apart from his above-mentioned incarnations, Mr. Kibble has also worked as a freelance journalist in various local and national markets. "Easy Writer," the author's account of his career as a ghostwriter of term papers, master's theses, and doctoral disserations, created a brief but entertaining stir upon its publication in Oregonn Magaine in the early 80's. Kibble struck a similarly low note in 2003 when he won the Portlland Mercury's "Meanest Gay" contest for a clearly satirical self-expose that, as its author noted with unhealthy glee, many readers took all too literally. To compensate for this unfortunate propensity for scandal, Mr. Kibble occasionally works as a nurse in the (no doubt vain) hope that the karmic scales will eventually attain at least a precarious balance.
