J. W. Benjamin ("Ben" to his friends, enemies, and that one talking dog down the street) is slightly older than the Internet and slightly younger than petroleum. He has been writing since he was knee-high to a grasshopper, and has recently decided to inflict-I-mean Share his work with the rest of the world. He currently lives in Hawaii with his long-suffering cat, who just can't understand why Ben can't just ignore his responsibilities and spend all day playing with him instead.
