"He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends." -- Oscar Wilde

PussInBoots might also be "C0r1n Sän Inman," depending on where you encounter him and the legality of his current activity.

When he's not writing he's drawing, and if he's not doing that he's a salesman at an upscale adult store. He lives in an attic with an embarrassing number of pets and an even more embarrassing pile of laundry. His fish does way cooler, more carnivorous things than either of his cats, and the dog enjoys the Fourth of July almost as much as he hates it.

His bookshelf is stuffed with Tad Williams, George R. R. Martin, Neil Gaiman, C. S. Friedman, Richard Adams, Scott Lynch, Carol Berg, J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Dick Francis, Lawrence Block, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Sometimes he admits to reading Jonathan Gash but for that you have to catch him when he hasn't slept much. (There's a two-day minimum.)

Historical piracy is his passion, and he spends a lot of time researching the antics of salty rogues and applying the knowledge to his stories. Sometimes he wears his pirate clothes in public, but post-high school no one beats him up for it anymore, and that takes away most of the fun.*

"Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck." --Joss Whedon
