Serdar Yegulalp
I have been writing fiction of one kind or another for a long time now (at least fifteen years), but only recently have I started to compile any of it for print.
The older material was written from around 1994 through 1998; the more recent material is newly-authored. I've resisted the temptation to touch up or revise the older books, since they are products of their moment in time. More books are on the way, too, so keep watching this page.
I've just released Summerworld (see below), and am working on new projects as I speak. Here's what's most immediately in the works:
 The New Golden Age: A semi-autobographical story about fandom and conventioneering -- people who come together for a weekend to share the things they love.
Progress on The New Golden Age:

Summerworld
In the blink of an eye, the world is made new ... How will you live?
It had to be a prank. A letter to Dr. Hirofumi, from a patient of his who’d died three years ago—now inviting him to come out to the country and spend some time there!
Then he followed the letter to its source, and realized all too late that he’d slid into a new world—one shaped by the fears and desires of all those who were lucky enough to survive the journey.
In that “changed place,” as those who live there call it, he discovered the new powers to be awakened within himself and others. He found friends and loved ones, both new and old—and he came to understand his new world far better than he had ever dreamed. Click here for a PDF preview. See the official website!

Another Worldly Device
A child prodigy falls into the hands of her eccentric next-door neighbor when her own adoptive parents go missing. Their odyssey together takes them through a underworld of amateur researchers, self-styled "cultural engineers", alienated youths, and a time of discovery that is both personal and universal."... magical realism at its most subtle and convincing, and a prime example of the type of self-published novel I hoped to see .... This is the kind of book that you finish reading and find yourself staring into space, digesting and rather regretting that it is all over, while still somehow feeling that the characters lives are going on beyond the pages somewhere just out of sight." -- Pod People

The Four-Day Weekend
Meet Henry and Winthrop: friends since forever, manga and anime fans, and dead sick of the daily grind. Henry’s girlfriend of four years just walked out on him after a dumb argument about salad dressing and Cowboy Bebop. Winthrop’s burned out on his comic store — paradise when you’re nineteen, but maybe not when you’re thirty-six. What’s left but to rent a car and a hotel room, gather some friends together, get dressed up as video-game characters and head south to drink in the biggest fan convention this side of the Missouri?
Then into both of their lives comes crashing Diane, who’s never seen an episode of Dragonball Z in her life and neither reads nor can spell Shonen Jump. A “mundane”. And as it turns out, she might need someone like them just as much as they need someone like her.
