Author Description

In the brutally competitive world of imaginary news, one fictitious newspaper dares to be so bleeding-edge, so provocative, and so underground that no one has even heard of it until now:The Picayune Intelligencer. Drawing from flash fiction, The Onion styled satire, and the imaginatively warped worldview of The Far Side, The Picayune Intelligencer collects over thirty hard hitting stories tackling such pressing issues as manspreading, amateur art criticism, the marital problems of superheroes, and many more. Alexander Kern’s short fiction debut is a humorous foray into the endearing absurdities of human nature, illustrating that sometimes the most outlandish news tells the most realistic truths.
