edit data

E. P. Tuazon is an LA native. He has published poems and short stories in several publications. He is the author of the short story collection THE SUPERLATIVE HORSE AND THE LAST OF THE LUPINS and two poetry chapbooks: ANIMALS and LOVE WILL TEAR US APART. Currently, he is a part of Advintage Press and The Blank Page Writing Club.

Heralding his predecessors, J.D.

Each story he writes is meant to excite thought, uncover the surreal in the everyday and the extraordinary in the ordinary.
