Jeremy first came into contact with fandom in 1993 as editor and publisher of Genesis, a small print zine focused on tabletop roleplaying, wargaming and video games.Sadler, Jeremy. "Genesis - Issue 1 - September/October 1993" facebook.com 
== Austrek and The Captain's Log ==
He began attending meetings of Austrek in 1994. In 1995 he volunteered to assist then editor Katharine Shade with the club newsletter The Captain's Log and signed on as Layout Designer, with his first issue being #216 in July 1995. 
His design marked a dramatic departure from the style of previous issues. Jeremy resigned from the role in January 1996, his last issue as layout designer #222 though he provided cover design for issue #223. 
== Star Walking Inc., Skyforce and Alliance ==
Jeremy also began attending meetings of Skyforce, the social club of Star Walking Inc. In 1995 he volunteered to co-edit the club's fan fiction zine Alliance with Cavell Gleeson. He also contributed fiction. The last issue of Alliance was in 1997.
Jeremy served on the organising committee of Skyforce between 1995 and 1997, including helping to expand it to Sydney attending several meetings there. 
== Frontier ==
In 1996, Jeremy partnered with friend and former The Captain's Log editor Katharine Shade to create K&J Publishing, which published Frontier: The Australian Science Fiction Media Magazine. He served as Art Director/Sub-Editor for the entire publication of the magazine until it closed in 2002.
Jeremy now remains on the periphery of fandom, writing reviews and articles for his website.
