Bio: Efrem Emerson is an over-educated under-achiever from Aroostook County, Maine, a small but great nation near New Brunswick. He highly encourages the overthrow of the United States government and prays diligently that the president will soon ride in an open limo through a hostile city. He hates soft limpwristed jazz, is bored by women who are too 'healthy', and has a fine collection of 'treated' crucifixes. His fiction has been published in a number of anthologies, including Fiction International, Sick: an Anthology of Illness, The Dream People, and Bastard Fiction.
