"My spirit animal is a cassette tape." Seven stories of horror and science fiction from author Matt Maxwell, whose subjects range from a boy in love with lost technology to digital reincarnations of Maya demigods, from two brothers facing every movie monster of the fifties to office politics in the dawning of a zombie apocalypse. Thinking machines and almost invisible parasites linger at the peripheries and sometimes the most frightening and unimaginable horror lies on the other side of a blinked eye. Tug on the Ribbon is Matt Maxwell’s first short story collection. He has written the science fiction novel Blue Highway and the fantasy Ragnarok Summer. He is also the writer of the comic series Strangeways, and the nonfiction collections The Collected Full Bleed and Highway 62 Revisited, as well as numerous other projects including short story work for Blizzard Entertainment. He is a recovered animator currently living in California.

A southern California native transplanted to the Sierra Nevada Foothills, Maxwell has been writing since he learned how to touch-type before he was in high school. He attended college at University of California, Irvine and graduated the same year TWIN PEAKS came on the air. Afterwards, he went on to work at a think-tank with members of the Manhattan Project team. Don't get excited. He did computer and clerical work. He took classes in design and animation and went on to work as an animator at Netter Digital, on MAX STEEL and DAN DARE. Sometimes he plays guitar and or keyboards and or drones for The Roswell Incident, which you can hear at highway62.bandcamp.com. He is the author of several novels, including the fantasy RAGNAROK SUMMER (out for the kindle now) and the nopocalypse science fiction novel BLUE HIGHWAY (print release on 10/16/13). In addition to these, he has written for Blizzard Entertainment, both in the STARCRAFT and DIABLO universes. He has written several short story collections, including TUG ON THE RIBBON and BLINK AND OTHERS and the upcoming DUSTBEARER. HIGHWAY 62 REVISITED is his latest collection of non-fiction and commentary, following THE COLLECTED FULL BLEED. Finally, he is the writer and creator of the western/horror comic series STRANGEWAYS, illustrated by Luis Guragña and Gervasio & Jok. He talks too much on twitter (@highway_62) and spends too much time on tumblr (highway62.tumblr.com and intrapanel.tumblr.com) where he chatters about movies and comics, respectively.
