Career[]

Erik Mona was the editor of the Oerth Journal, an online publication devoted to the World of Greyhawk campaign setting, from issues 3-7.[2] In the 1990s, Mona had the opportunity to talk to designers like Robert Kuntz on the GreyTalk mailing list in 1990s, where Kuntz shared stories of the early Greyhawk days.[3]:242 Mona and other editors later working at Paizo Publishing were fans of Greyhawk, and thus gave some attention to the setting in Dragon and Dungeon magazines while Paizo was publishing the magazines.[3]:177 Mona served as the editor-in-chief of Dragon beginning in 2004 and Dungeon from 2004 to 2006;[4] at the time, both magazines were published by Paizo Publishing, until the license through Wizards of the Coast expired in September 2007.[citation needed] He has edited, authored, and co-authored several products for the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, including the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer,[5] Faiths and Pantheons,[6] Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss,[7] Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk (a "solid hit")[8]), Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting, and Armies of the Abyss.[9][10][11]

Mona became the head publisher of Paizo Publishing in April 2006.[12] He maintains a blog called Lemuria Press and lives in Seattle, Washington.[citation needed]
