Brief Author Bio:

Teel McClanahan III is an Arizona native and a firm believer that in the changing future of the publishing industry, there will be room in "the long tail" for MicroPublishers and authors of revolutionary and sometimes unusual fiction. Along with experimental poetry, can't-put-it-down serial fiction, and engaging short fiction, Teel writes novels that test the limits of reality.

Looking toward the future, Teel decided that rather than teaming with the aging giants of Publishing he would start his own niche Publishing Company, Modern Evil Press. In the end, he cares more about sharing his stories with readers everywhere than about financial gain, and in the Content Economy of the future, he'll be one step ahead of the pack.

Synopsis: More Lost Memories

I'm actually working on a collection of short stories this year, all connected together and to a novel I just finished editing on 10/31. As I was writing the novel, I kept developing settings, backgrounds, and characters and then finding that the bulk of that depth was only hinted at by the course of the main action of the novel. My plan is to write a short story for each of those ideas, fleshing out the world of the novel, the incidental characters, and hopefully telling interesting stories at the same time.

No genre selected, since this work should include: Literary, Sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and religious fiction - at least. I know the novel does all of those things, plus superhero fiction, and the plan is to expand outward in all those directions with the various stories. Except for the superhero. I think I'm leaving him out. He's covered well enough in the novel.
