I was born and raised in Southeastern Kentucky, then moved to Western Kentucky after school to teach college writing and the occasional literature class. My wife, Jamie, is a huge Harry Potter fan (she got me into it) and an inveterate reader/listener of The Hog’s Head who gets to teach Harry Potter to her high school seniors this year. We live close to the Ohio River with our four cats, watch a lot of movies, and play a few videogames. I like to examine Harry Potter in light of pop culture. You’ll find posts from me on not just HP, but also comic books, movies, and games.
