Swicegood, Sam: - Sam Swicegood is a native of the Baltimore area now living in Cincinnati, Ohio. He is the son of two Army veterans who bonded over shared nerdy obsessions. His mother wrote fiction throughout her life, and passed that passion onto her children. He is an active member of Ohio Free and Accepted Masons, N. C. Harmony Lodge No. 2. He is an active community activist, internet dweeb, redditor, and general nuisance. His hobbies include running D&D games, complaining about Ohio weather, accidentally finding new ways to trigger anxiety attacks, looking up pictures of cute animals on the internet, and failing horribly at writing self-biographical blurbs.
