Despite being raised by responsible adults, Max Eddy graduated from the University of Michigan. Though he is terrible at Scrabble and hates The Faerie Queen, he does have a BA in English. During his freshman year, he met the Gargoyle Humor Magazine and the two were forcibly married. He served faithfully as a writer for two years and as Editor-In-Chief for two additional years.

Academically, Max's interests include (but are not limited to) lite linguistics, criticism, and nordic studies -- specifically the medieval sagas of Iceland. He's also intrigued by the social and literary impact of the internet on the world.

In his personal life, Max is something of a debonaire raconteur renaissance-everyman. An intriguing mixture of Ralph Waldo Emerson, John Phillips Sousa, and James Bond. He is an avid pursuer of music, with a taste for tunes that can be described as either "eclectic" or "terrible" depending on how the wind blows. He also enjoys comic books an awful lot, and reads a few ongoing series. He is, however, allergic to most superheroes.

Max is something of a gardener, having worked through college as a groundskeeper. Someday, he hopes to have a farm -- or at least some space so he can be assured a steady supply of decent tomatoes.

He once acquired a banjo, and can stumble through a few tunes. He can also play the clarinet through his nose. He currently lives with his girlfriend Claire, in the Del Ray neighborhood of Alexandria, VA. They have a dog, named Tenzing, whom they share.

Max is currently employed as a Technical Writer and Editor for SAIC, which is where most of his money is coming from these days. He is, however, interested in new projects. People and Interesting Parties may contact him at wmeddy [at] [gmail] [dot] [com]
