Brian Hobbs
Brian Hobbs earned the dubious degree of the English Major, a degree which guarantees he will make “Did-you-know-statements” of a literary degree to a mixed company during cocktail parties. Therefore, those not interested in English, alas, or writing, even greater alas! are not interested in what he hopes to be illuminating comments.  To support his writing fix, he works for a local proprietary school, both teaching, which he loves, and managing the desperate behaviors of eight diverse psychological constructs of people by a method of cajoling, pavlovian responses, and e-mails with tiny red flags on them.  He has been published semi-recently by Glass: A Journal of Poetry and this renewed his ardor of publication and sends his meager writing out as baby blue birds chirping from his nestbrain.
