The Man Himself

DK is a writer who lives in Baltimore. He is also a rotating tray, usually circular, placed on top of a table to aid in moving food on a large table or countertop.  Prior to that time, he was called a dumbwaiter, a term also applied to a type of small elevator for transporting food.

His work, largely essays and speculative fiction, has been published in The Bullet, the Gettysburg Mercury, Front Porch Journal, Ghoti Hook, Battered Suitcase, the Nautilus Engine, 5923 Quarterly, ULA Redux, The Light Ekphrastic, and Welter. He is also a regular contributor to Adfreak, Adweek Magazine's weblog. Really. Objectivists send him hate mail and everything.

Influences on DK's work include Poe, Carroll, Faulkner, John Bellairs, Terry Pratchett, Robert Louis Stevenson, Neil Gaiman, Douglas Adams, Philip K. Dick, Hunter S. Thompson, and Dave Barry. This is also a partial list of his favorite authors.

DK participated in, and completed, NaNoWriMo 2009, and is in the process of editing his novel (working title: Only the Dead May Use the Bathroom) into something that he could possibly sell to a publisher.

His graphic design portfolio can be found here, and is continuously updated.
