Shane Allison was bitten by the writing bug at the age of fourteen. He spent a majority of his high school life shying away in the library behind desk cubicles writing bad love poems about boys he had crushes on. He has since gone on to publish five collections of poetry, the most recent being Turbulent, published by Hysterical Books, and his book-length poem, Remembered Men, published by Ranger Press. Shane's collage work has graced the pages of Noisy Rain, Shampoo, The Southeast Review, Postscript, and a plethora of others. Shane is at work on a new novel, new poetry and is always at work making collages and painting.
