About Me
Like nearly everyone in the blogosphere, I'm a freelance writer. Unlike nearly everyone in the blogosphere, I actually make my living at it. No, really.

Who is SwanShadow? I'm a husband, a father, a writer, an editor, a speaker, a commentator, a minister, a teacher, a pop culture analyst, a budding voice actor, a baseball fanatic, a trivia maven, a student of comic book history (especially Silver and Bronze Age superhero comics), and a second tenor in a world-class a cappella chorus. I was also an undefeated champion on Jeopardy!, back before some guy named Ken made it look easy.

RE: funky.
You forgot to eat again, didn't you? Spending all that time (and money!) on ebay, eh?
On the eBay thing, you'd be amazed at how little all of this stuff I've mentioned has cost in the aggregate. On a couple of the items the Geof Isherwood and Dan Adkins pieces in particular I almost felt badly for the seller that my winning bid was so low. (Almost.)
Trust me on this I'm a notorious bargain hunter. I always know exactly what I'm willing to pay for something, and will adamantly refuse to pay one lepton more. It's why car salespeople hate me. ;^)
