This is a poem I wrote the other night while/after working late. As you may or may not be aware, I own my own company and work out of my home. My primary work computer is in my bedroom (because it's got the best setup for quiet recording). So, when I work late, and my wife sleeps, I can actually watch her gradual progression/rotation in bed.

Teel McClanahan is an Arizona native and a firm believer that in the changing future of the publishing industry, there will be room in "the long tail" for MicroPublishers and authors of revolutionary and sometimes unusual fiction. Along with experimental poetry, can't-put-it-down serial fiction, and engaging short fiction, Teel writes novels that test the limits of reality.
Looking toward the future, Teel decided that rather than teaming with the aging giants of Publishing he would start his own niche Publishing Company, Modern Evil Press. In the end, he cares more about sharing his stories with readers everywhere than about financial gain, and in the Content Economy of the future, he'll be one step ahead of the pack.
Teel is also an artist. You can see it at wretchedcreature.com
