The greatest writer you've never heard of, self-proclaimed voice of a generation, and adept commentator on the state of the social and political fabric of the American character at the awakening of the 21st Century.

Praise for Publish This Book: "A transformative masterpiece of such breathtaking scope and Earth-shattering depth that it is expected to replace both Fear and Trembling and Ulysses as the seminal literary work that people everywhere will not read." —Stephen Markley Non-biased praise forthcoming.     I'm probably pouring over some more cutting-edge journalism or scathing satire overflowing with brilliant witicisms for my next column in the Chicago Red Eye's daily blog, "Off the Markley."
