ALAN Workshop
Ron Koertge
Ron Koertge does not believe in inspiration. He believes in going to work. He does no research for his novels. He believes that authors make thing up and that their job is to expose pomosity and hypocrisy. He doesn't so much write as take diction from himself.
He's been preparing to be an author all of his life. He was sneaky and felonious as a child. Writing for kids allows him to turn straw into gold. "Frank" books don't always have to be about sex, although we often contrue them that way.
