Bellamy Bach
Encyclopedia
Bellamy Bach was a group pseudonym used by several New York-based writers in the 1980s, some of whom still remain anonymous. Terri Windling
is on record (quoted here) as having used the pseudonym when writing stories for the anthologies Bordertown
and Life on the Border, which were part of the Borderland
series of urban fantasy
stories and novels for teenage readers.
Other poetry and short fiction appeared under the "Bellamy Bach" name in other fantasy anthologies (including the Elsewhere series) and 'zines (including The Green Man). Windling has said these were not her work, but created by other members of the group.
