The Church of the Misfit Toys

We all roll a 1d4.

What have I gotten myself into here?

The ramblings of a self-professed, postmodern, existentialist christian mystic with a tendency to offend both sides of most every argument...

About the author

seanhtaylor: Sean Taylor is a "genre-defying literary chameleon." That just means he writes stuff. All kinds of stuff. Lit stuff. Pulp stuff. Horror stuff. Sci-fi stuff. Poetry stuff. Non-fiction stuff. Comic book stuff. He digs it all. He dreams for the days of Vonnegut and Bradbury, where writers could write what they wanted instead getting pigeon-holed into epics and series and marketing-based genres that were layered in six feet of bricks. (For the love of God, Montressor!) He likes to leapfrog around it all like a toad hopped up on speed. In his writing life, he has directed the “lives” of zombies, super heroes, goddesses, dominatrices, Bad Girls, pulp heroes, and yes, even frogs, for such diverse bosses as IDW Publishing, Gene Simmons, and The Oxygen Network. More info at his website thetaylorverse.com and his writing blog badgirlsgoodguys.com [He, Him] Renaissance Nerd: D-List Comics, Board Games, 20th Cent Am Lit, BBC SciFi #LGBTQIAally #BlackLivesMatter #fightracism #fightheteronormativity #prochoice #SPED
