The Clerk is a persona of S.N. Petro, a technical writer who incorporates elements of their life experiences into their stories, drawing from a stint in the Air Force, their time as a personal trainer and bodybuilding competitor, as well as experiences with parenthood and relationships. They also reflect on societal ills. Their favorite writing topics include human mental and physical strength, speculation about the afterlife, unpopular opinions, and examining underdogs and villains from an empathetic perspective.

Cathryn Kemp
“a woman’s lot to be forever existing in the gaps, the pauses between the acts of men.”
Cathryn Kemp, A Poisoner's Tale

Patrick Ness
“There is not always a good guy. Nor is there always a bad one. Most people are somewhere in between.”
Patrick Ness, A Monster Calls

“We try to stay as thin as possible - which also keeps us weak. When you're skinny, you have no body fat; when you have no body fat, you're cold all the time; and when you're cold all the time, you stay inside; and when you stay inside... you don't vote. I may be joking about that last part... but I'm not totally wrong. Ever stop to think that by keeping women eternally preoccupied with superficialities that we might be missing out on important things in life?”
Iliza Shlesinger, Girl Logic: The Genius and the Absurdity

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde
