Mitchell Shanklin lives in Seattle and enjoys writing stories with either magic or made-up science or both. He also writes code for companies (and sometimes for himself). In his free time he plays video, board and mind games, reads, runs, and has rambling philosophical arguments. (No, not all at the same time. Yet).

He is a proud member of Team Arsenic, the Dreamcrashers, the bisexual community, the “very, very casual” branch of the Green Bay Packer fan community and Write of Passage.
