WHO'S H. ANDREW LYNCH?

I'm a long-time writer who dips into and out of view every several years or so. My comic-book collection consists of 3,000 pieces. My novel collection consists of about 1,000. I've been writing since I dropped out of college. I'm an interaction designer and information architect. It pays the bills while I concoct short films, short stories, and other hair-brained schemes.

I've written some fifty stories, about twenty of them published in small and major presses. My first short film, Her Last Interview, screened at the New York International Film and Video Festival in 2001. I followed that with 7.1, a short about a man who tries to shoot himself at the moment an earthquake strikes.

Most of my published fiction lives in the realm of dark fantasy, outright horror, or soft science fiction. My biggest literary influences are long-dead writers, but I get a lot of off-ramp muse love from illustrators and symphonic composers.

I live in a beautiful Victorian apartment near Dolores Park in San Francisco with my beagles, Woody & Darwin. We're meat eaters.
