Born and raised on the edge of the American Midwest and South, Dennis Sharpe has been a writer as long as he can remember. His mother has told many people about the fantasy and science fiction stories he'd write on scraps of paper, and staple together as his 'books', before he'd attended his first day of formal education. He has spent many late nights at diners and dives, drinking coffee with a tattered notebook to put a voice to his feelings of himself and the world around him, and other worlds that can exist only in fiction. The voices in his head don't ever stop talking to him, and so sooner or later he has to get out onto a page all that they've filled him up with. His inspirations have been many and varied, from Kurt Vonnegut to Frank Miller, from Chrissie Pappas to Charles Bukowski, from Stephen King to Issac Asimov, from William Shakespeare to Katherine Paterson, and countless classic literary, academic, theatrical, comic, illustrated, and visual influences. Dennis excels in his ability to write what at a glance might seem absurd, but quickly begins to resonate with our own thoughts and emotions. He writes people we know, love we've known and lost (and found again), and places we've been in our lives and in our heads. Even his fictional characters and worlds carry enough of the grey areas we experience in day-to-day life, to let us find the truth in his words, no matter how fantastic. These days he can be found still writing at all odd hours, drinking coffee with friends, or spending time with his children (the true joys of his life, when they have the time and inclination to visit), in Western Kentucky.
