Pretexts for Writing 2nd edition by Thomas Allbaugh (2013) Paperback

About the author

I've been writing since the fourth grade, when my teacher allowed satire in our "What I Want for Christmas" stories. Today, I am convinced that writing is not just creating products, but more importantly an active way to reflect, discover new ideas, and process the world around us. I've managed to publish short fiction, essays, and poetry in a number of small journals. In "Apocalypse TV," my first novel, academic and popular culture collide in a Reality TV show explosion.
