Adam Franklin changes climates like hair styles, once aided heavily by a stint as a Bosun aboard seagoing expedition ships, but increasingly slowed by an ever-expanding personal library. Currently earning his B.A. in Creative Writing at Southern New Hampshire University, he has written three unnerving short films, four speculative short stories, and Alchemist’s Anatomy, a hand-bound collection of exploratory poetry from his participation in Tupelo Press’s 30/30 Project. Currently living in the arid Cascade rain shadow of Southeastern Washington, he is also considering a change of hairstyle.
