Overview: Palmer began reading Amazing Stories magazine after discovering its first issue in the spring of 1926. He wrote his first science fiction story, “The Time Ray of Jandra”, in high school. His English teacher was so impressed, she read it aloud to her class.
Palmer had several of his letters to the editor published in Amazing Stories. To encourage science fiction fandom, the magazine published addresses of its letter-writers. Walter Dennis, a Chicago fan, traveled to Milwaukee to meet Ray.
Palmer and Dennis created a “Science Correspondence Club” in May 1930 to help fans connect with one another. This was, according to science fiction historian Mike Ashley, the first organized sci fi fandom group.
In 1936, the Fictioneers published Dawn of Flame, a fix-up of two of Stanley Weinbaum’s unpublished stories (“Dawn of Flame” and “The Black Flame”). It was the first anthology ever published featured the work of a science fiction author. Palmer wrote the foreword.
Palmer wrote two entries for the “Jim Grant” character created by Hoar as well as stories for Murder Mysteries, True Gang Life, Scarlet Adventuress, Scarlet Gang Stories, Spicy Detective, and Thrilling Wonder Stories. Among the pen names Palmer used for his crime fiction were Alexander Blade, Henry Cade, G.H. Irwin, Joseph J. Millard, Frank Patton, Wallace Quitman, Rap, A.R. Steber, Morris J. Steele, Robert N. Webster, and Rae Winters.
