BIO

KIERAN SHEA’s fiction has appeared in dozens of venues including Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, Thuglit, Dogmatika, Word Riot, Plots with Guns, Beat to a Pulp, Crimefactory, and Needle: A Magazine of Noir ...as well as in some beefy-looking anthologies most of which will make you question the tether of his shiny, red balloon. To his self-deprecating astonishment he's also been nominated for the Story South’s Million Writers Award twice without sending the judges so much as a thank you note. He co-edited the satiric transgressive fiction collection D*CKED: DARK FICTION INSPIRED BY DICK CHENEY and his debut novel KOKO TAKES A HOLIDAY is out now from Titan Books. Kieran divides his time between 38°58′22.6″N- 76°30′4.17″W and 39.2775° N, 74.5750° W.

Words To Write By: Jim Harrison

"Some people hear their own inner voices with great clearness. And they live by what they hear. Such people become crazy...or they become legend." - Jim Harrison

This is the kick-in-the-ass anyone who writes really needs. Lots of twitter and buzz out there from folks reeling from Indiana excesses and crimey book talk. Egad! The Lord of Mirth keeps posting pictures.
