About me

Gender Male
Location Milwaukee, WI, United States
Introduction I write, you write, we all write. It's nice.
Interests Books, comics, writing, music, movies, my kids (What can I say? They're interesting.), politics (to my own mortification).
Favorite Movies Coen Brothers, Wes Anderson, anything with Bruce Campbell.
Favorite Music Elliott Smith, Elvis Costello, Modest Mouse, Wilco, Mark Lanegan, Damien Dempsey, Mos Def and tons more.
Favorite Books Comics by Warren Ellis, Alan Moore, Geoff Johns, Brad Meltzer, Mark Waid, Kurt Busiek, Grant Morrison, Garth Ennis, most of Mark Millar and Brian Bendis (although I can't get into some of the Marvel stuff). As far as books, I'm pretty open genre-wise. I love Calvino, Camus, George Singleton, Tom Franklin, George Saunders, Jack Pendarvis, Chuck Palahniuk, Neil Gaiman, I need to check out some more Cormac McCarthy (The Road was amazing). Of course, any book I've seen fit to recommend on The Inside Flap blog can be added to this list.

Your superpower is that you smell like dandelions whenever someone lies. How will you maintain your secret identity?

I'll play up my deep, abiding love for dandelion-scented body wash. It'll be the first thing anyone hears about upon meeting me.
