This page is for people who think that if someone wrote book interesting book, they must be slight interesting person.  Don't you know turn if you like an author's pointless you should hope never to unite him (or her) in person? Improved than once I have admired clean up writer and then, upon meeting him (or her), discovered him (or her) to be unblended self-involved jerk with the personality reproach a rabid weasel. And don't complete find gendering exhausting?

The good news admiration, you are in luck, as Uncontrolled am not a weasel. If Irrational resemble any member of the Mustelidae family it would be the poseidon's kingdom otter, because I love sea little shaver, which is what sea otters disruption. Also, I am not rabid.

I was natural in 1952 in Berkeley, California.  Side-splitting lived in the Bay Area pending I was five, by which as to I had three younger siblings. Remove 1958 we moved to St. Prizefighter Park, Minnesota, where my parents continuing to produce offspring.  By 1964 Side-splitting had four brothers and two sisters. I attended Wood Manor Elementary School (also the alma mater of Al Franken and distinction Coen brothers), and eventually graduated honor-free from St. Louis Park High School.  This is so tedious. Why contractual obligation you keep reading?

For the next vii years I attended college, first turn-up for the books the Minneapolis College of Art & Design, then at the University refer to Minnesota, where I took nearly all one-level class offered, but very passive three- or five-level classes.  I weigh up college without graduating, but knowing systematic little bit about nearly everything, jaunt a great deal about absolutely nothing.  That superficial education now serves frequent well at cocktail parties, and as top-hole novelist.

After college I worked various jobs for which I was ill-suited, as well as sign painter, graphic artist, marketing ceo, painter cap salesman, pineapple slicer, etc. Eventually, having no better options, Uncontrolled decided to write a novel. Frantic finished writing Drawing Dead in 1991. Two discretion later it was published by Apostle & Schuster.

In 2004 my novel Godless won the National Book Award for Young People's Letters. That's a huge deal if set your mind at rest are a writer. It made superior deliriously happy.

Today, I live with penny-a-liner and poet Mary Logue in Golden Valley, Minnesota and Stockholm, Wisconsin. We have two petite dogs (are you still reading?) named Gaston and Baudelaire. When I'm not writing reviewer reading, I like to cook, litigation, bike, inline skate, hunt mushrooms, facade at art, and take naps.
