Erik SchneiderErik JM Schneider was born incognito in 1962, in a body received as female and thus hailed for 35 years. While so named or that is while differently named he coauthored a poetry zine with Lisa Gail Puteska in Atlanta GA in the mid 1980s. Later he praticed as a Kill Rock Star in the band Infamous Menagerie and as a professional student at the University of Washington at Seattle. Shortly after arriving in the Bay Area he changed physiology and nomenclature to something more suitable. He was declared Doctor of Rhetoric by the University of California Berkeley in 2007 and he now lives at his keyboard full-time producing random autobiographical interjections which he has read at various open mics around San Francisco. ONE LAST DITCH is his inaugural real book and announces his intention to write before he dies as many daemonic personae as possible mainly because he is unable to write elsewise. Read More Read Less
