BIO:
Andrew was born in Massachusetts and stayed there a bit too long before deciding to bring his Puritan work ethic and Irish Catholic repression out West. He is fascinated with the taboo, the perverse, and writing about the things in which we don't want to see ourselves reflected.
"You see, that which is exposed to the exterior is smooth and dry and clean. That which is not... underneath, is slimy and filled with fungus and crawling with worms. It is another life that is parallel to the one we manifest. It's there. The way worms are underneath the stone. If you don't recognize it... (Whispering) it eats you. That is my opinion. Well, who is ready for lunch?" -- from 'Fefu and her Friends' by Maria Irene Fornes
