About Me
Howdy! I live in Philadelphia, but I grew up in—and remain attached to—northeastern Oklahoma. In the real world, whatever that is, I mostly edit other people's writing. I occasionally bring those copy-editing skills to random messy pieces here. My main interests include sport, sociology, history, music, beer, and, yes, Oklahoma.

Current Projects

 * Gyan Riley — I'm shocked that Riley, an amazing guitarist (and the son of Terry Riley), doesn't have an entry.

Projects I've Completed (for now, anyway)

 * Andrea Gibson — I don't really know her work, but the article was a disaster. I researched her, substantially rewrote the article, and added a few references.  A future project would be to expand the article.
 * Oktaha, Oklahoma — I added and wrote a new section on History. And I plan to write more if I can get my hands on a copy of Jim Etter's Oktaha, A Track in the Sand.
 * World Fantasy Awards — Despite my utter lack of interest in or knowledge about the genre , I somehow felt compelled to update (with the 2006 and 2007 nominees and winners) the articles for various awards: Novella, Short Fiction, Anthology, Collection, Artist, Life Achievement, Special Award: Professional, and Special Award: Non-Professional. Tedious work!
