Wil Wheaton started acting at age 7. As a teenager, he starred in the Academy Award nominated classic, Stand By Me, and the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation. After leaving Next Generation in its 4th season, he went on to star in several award-winning independent films before taking an extended hiatus from acting to write fulltime.

His website, wilwheaton.net, won weblog of the year in the 2002 bloggies, was named Best Celebrity Weblog by Forbes.com in 2003, and is read by a global audience of over one hundred thousand people a week.

He is lactose intolerant, loves Cake (the band, not the food) and lives in Pasadena, California. He wishes that his author bio was as good as Ben’s illustrator bio.
