Bill Ernest, Jr.'s Page

My name is Bill Ernest, Jr. I am a Freelance Writer and Comic, currently working on a compilation of short Science Fiction stories and until recently I was prepping material for a run at Last Comic Standing but as you may know; the brain trust at NBC cancelled it in favor of “Law & Order: Ridiculous Victims Unit” or some other such non-sense. My non-fiction (and non-funny) works have appeared in numerous small press newspapers,magazines, and websites. I have been a student of Journalism, Radio/TV/Film Production, Political Science, Philosophy, Theatre Arts, and History. I was a practicing member of the Comedy Sportz Improv Comedy troupe of San Antonio. I have competed in speech tournaments at the collegiate level and was the Web-Editor of an award winning newspaper’s web edition. I was also a reporter for the print-edition. I have covered Pelosi's tax payer paid for victory lap around the nation and interviewed one of the few men who actually walked on the moon... At one time, I was the host of a news/entertainment program on a 3-county wide local cable system in Northern California. I am a decorated Veteran & a former Air Traffic Controller.
