Daniel Galef
has appeared in the e-pages of Sein und Werden three times, and a few other places, too, including Light, Child of Words, and Word Ways, as well as fifteen different McGill University publications (with designs on the rest). His writing process generally involves the consumption of a certain psychotropic species of fish, a blood sacrifice to the Dark Muse Melinoe, and arranging into lines and stanzas letters cut out from old ransom notes. Born sometime in the previous millennium, he currently resides in this one, a bit to the left. He has no website except his Twitter account (hint hint), but everyone else seems to have one, so the hyperlink below is to this very page. Yeah, you can do that now.
