John T. Trigonis is a published poet and author (Crowdfunding for Filmmakers), aspiring comics creator (Siren’s Calling and his forthcoming cyberpunk series Breath Run), and former editor at EIGHTY and Lamplighter magazines. When not tapping away at a piece of writing, be it a Broken Frontier review or his latest D&D adventure, John spends more time than he’d like to admit collecting vintage eighties and nineties action figures and collectibles and teaching writing and public speaking courses as a freelance professor at various universities across his home state of New Jersey. One day, when the world gets back to normal, he hopes to open a coffee and pinball house.
