Author Description
Crad Kilodney (1948-2014) was the pen name of Lou Trifon, an American-born Canadian writer who lived for many years in Toronto.
Kilodney obtained a degree in astronomy, but instead of working in that field he took a job at Exposition Press, a self-publishing company. Many of his experiences in that job, and with vanity publishing in general, shaped his outlook on fiction and provided him with material for many stories.
After moving to Canada in 1973 he worked at a number of other book publishers and while doing so decided that it might be best to reach people by publishing his books under his own Charnel House imprint and selling them face-to-face on the street. This he did from 1978 through 1995, and published over thirty books in this manner.
In 1991 Kilodney was charged with selling commercial goods without a license, making him the only Canadian writer ever charged for selling his own writing.
He retired from writing books in 1995.
