Meet Our Readers: Tom Underberg

          

Tom Underberg.jpg - click to view - mousewheel to zoom
Tom Underberg lives and works in Evanston, which is basically Chicago if you zoom the map out far enough. He's had a variety of jobs that sound more interesting in a list than they were in real life: bartender, book binder, dishwasher, consultant. Before he started work on his first novel, he published short fiction in magazines like Weird Tales and The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. He's been claiming he's no more than 10 to 15 thousand words from finishing the first draft of that first novel for a while now, so hopefully by the time we read this bio at Tuesday Funk, the book will be done.

Please join Tom and our other amazing readers on Tuesday, December 5, 2017 in the upstairs bar at Hopleaf. Doors open at 7pm, and the show starts at 7:30. It's free, and 21-and-over. RSVP on Facebook.
