Clifford Evan, daddy of two, has lived in New York City, New Orleans, and south Florida, working more strange jobs than he can count on three hands, including pizza delivery driver (but solely in a legal capacity). He received an MFA in fiction writing from Columbia University and currently teaches in the Department of Writing Studies at Montclair State University.

Best that he is aware, no one has ever done magic, witchcraft, or cast a spell on him, but he acknowledges the possibility. He could even make a compelling case that some unseen forces played a guiding hand in the publication of A Death Never Lived, only that's a story better saved for a podcast.
