I have worked with Ben for 8 years and read his work everytime they get published. His writing gets me laughing outloud, thinking hard and always wanting more. Read Lucky Man a few months ago and found it humorous and haunting. I still think about the characters.

I've known Ben for years - personally and professionally. he's one of the most creative (and a little wacko) guys I've had the pleasure to cross paths with. I've read a lot of his stuff. It's consistently thought provoking and stimulating; sometimes depressing, sometimes dark, sometimes funny, sometimes...

Ben's reading in Chapel Hill, NC was a great success. His work is always a welcome addition to our journal, and his debut novel makes us proud to be associated with him. We urge anyone interested in reading something truly creative and compelling to pick up a copy of Lucky Man as soon as possible. I hear that when you read it the second time, it is in 3D.

Ben is a fantastic writer, has our vote, and we encourage everybody to give Lucky Man a read.
