Coleman M

I'm a librarian who loves reading literary books, environmental treatises, short stories, calls to social action, graphic novels and anything with a dark sense of humor. When I'm not helping library patrons, you can find me debating the merits of Star Wars, feeding my YouTube addiction or attempting to emulate my favorite authors by writing stories of my own.

Look not to a scientist or religious leader for truth about the world. Instead, look to a discerning magician who won't fall for paranormal poppycock.
