Author: Joseph S. Pete

Joseph S. Pete is an award-winning journalist, an Iraq War veteran, an Indiana University graduate, and a frequent guest on Lakeshore Public Radio. He was named the poet laureate of Chicago BaconFest, a feat that Chaucer chump never accomplished. His work has appeared in Robot Butt, Vanity Projection, McSweeney's Internet Tendency, Neutrons/Protons, The Higgs Weldon, Defenestration Magazine, The Big Jewel, Parody Poetry Journal, and many more. He once wrote an author bio that was pure Shakespeare but it was banned by various authorities and so forth for just being too real, you know how it is, and he had to attach this crappy one instead. Oh, that doesn't make sense? Well, you don't make sense--look, an eagle!
