When he's not writing weird fiction, Luke J. Morris teaches high school English and Creative Writing, trains Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, reads comic books and horror novels, and spends time with his wife, five kids, and two cats. He holds a B.A. in Philosophy, an M.A. in Creative Writing, and a black belt in JKD/MMA, which makes him feel undeservedly special. A native of cold Chicago, he now lives in the blistering heat of Phoenix, Arizona. See his weird work at lukejmorris.com. ...more

- "What if the world around them is a hallucination?"

Alternatively, I might just brainstorm chapter titles until one strikes my fancy, and follow that path where it leads me.(less)
