So, before we begin, let's get all this out of the way first. Yes, I live in Roswell, NM. Yes, I'll say "hi" to Mulder and Scully for you. No, I don't live by Area 51, that's in Nevada. No, the only aliens I have knowingly seen are either tourists, illegal tourists, or an artist's depiction. Do I believe the government covered up a real UFO crash near Roswell, NM? No comment.

Ok, so, since we've gotten that out of the way, I'll actually introduce my self. 

Hi! I'm Ben. I write fiction like a lot of you. I also have one of those useless B.A. degrees in English: Creative Writing.  Does this make me a better writer? Who knows. I wasn't a very good writer when I graduated six years ago. I've gotten much better. 

When I write short fiction I tend to write Horror. I've found that when I try to write anything longer, I end up writing Science Fiction for some odd reason. 

I've written a novel called "The Bastion" and am in the process of transcribing the son-of-a-bitch

I'm married to a Veterinarian.

I have two dogs, two cats, and two rats. Their names are Moose, Luna, Pebbles, Shade, Pecan, and Ash. Yes, I have an animal hippy commune.  Don't judge until you meet them.

I am an aspiring weird Twitterer. But you didn't hear that from me. https://twitter.com/BenFromEtcha
