| Bio: | Call me Dave. I blog here about my family life with my wife and daughter and about my personal struggles, triumphs, and frustrations as SF/F/horror writer. (Which is a really nice way of me saying I bitch a lot about writing.) I'm kind of a religous nut -- though not in the typical sense. I think Fox Mulder and Bono are the next wave disciples -- the real latter day saints. And I have an unhealthy obsession with the TV show "Lost." I've written stories about vampires taking communion, kids who become superheroes, terrorist saints, serial killer prophets, Saint Darwin, the post-apocalypse view from Hawaii, and puritan noir (as if there was any other kind). Some of which have been published, some of which will hopefully be published in the not-too distant future. Here's what other people have said about my stories: "Dave Thompson...manages to be gross, touching, funny and twisted all at once." -- Cory Doctorow "I really enjoyed ["Last Respects"]. When I meet Dave Thompson, I’m going to kick him in the nuts for making me choke up on the recording." -- Scott Sigler "You, sir, are ronin, the masterless internet samurai. I could not possibly command powers as vast and wild as your own." -- Matt Wallace (to me) Published Work: "God-Shaped Box", Hub Magazine, Issue 51 "Last Respects", Pseudopod, March 31 2007 (Reprinted on Apex Online, October 2007.) Forthcoming: "Saint Darwin's Spirituals," Simultaneously released by Murky Depths and Variant Frequencies "Puritan Noir: Love Burns," Coyote Wild | |||||
