Michael Solana is an ex-store clerk, ex-boardwalk barker, ex-barista, ex-busboy, ex-expat English teacher. Born and raised on the Jersey Shore, he currently lives in New York City where he writes stories and has somehow still not been fired from his job at Penguin, where he edits non-fiction. He’s generally over-caffeinated, and he winds up on the Simulated Reality Wikipedia page far more often than is probably healthy
