A little about me (updated 6/2/14):

• Married to a most wonderful woman who is much smarter than I am and too polite to rub my face in it
• Owner and publisher of The Merry Blacksmith Press
• Production Manager for the SFWA Bulletin
• Editor, typesetter and layout guru at BearManor Media
• Freelance contractor for Intellect Books, UK
• Writer of short fiction, nonfiction, and poetry
• Artist delving into a variety of media from traditional oils to digital work
• Freelance typesetter and layout artist
• Fan and practitioner of Irish traditional music. I primarily play the tenor banjo and the bodhran, but I’ve been known to torture a few other instruments as well
• Enjoy reading, fishing, and cooking

A very summed up summary that doesn’t nearly do me justice, but this is the internet, after all, and any second now you’re going to be more tempted to look at cats riding in little toy cars than reading this. In fact, I think I’ll join you.
