Blah Blah Blah Open Mic Series - Guest Author Brian Petkash

Bring your finest prose or a true story to share at Wordier Than Thou's newly rebranded Blah Blah Blah Open Mic Series

In addition to open mic readers, Brian Petkash will be our guest author.
Brian Petkash grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, a focal point of much of his writing (and much of his sports heartache).

A former high school literature and creative writing teacher, he lives in Tampa with his partner Celeste and works as a marketing professional in both the game and comic book industries.

He holds an MFA in Creative Writing from University of Tampa. His work has appeared in El Portal, Bridge Eight Literary Magazine, Southword, and Midwestern Gothic.

Mistakes by the Lake, his collection of stories, was published by Madville Publishing.
