Work

In addition to editing the final three issues of Amazing, Berkwits published Asterism: The Journal of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Space Music in the 1990s.

Berkwits received two nominations, in 2002 and 2004 for the Hugo Award for Best Fan Writer.[4]

As a freelance writer, Berkwits' articles have appeared in a variety of magazines, including Locus, Cinescape, SCI FI, The X-Files Official Magazine, and Science Fiction Weekly.[1]

Berkwits published two short stories, "First Contact" and "Dirty Laundry," in Keen Science Fiction in 1996.
