Michael Dundrea grew up on the mean streets of the west Houston suburbs, eating Pop-Tarts and Kellog’s Pops and frozen popsicles. He’s a snob when it comes to Kraft cheeses and boxed wine but will eat at any fine dining establishment as long as he doesn’t have to pick up the check. He graduated from The University of Texas in Austin and recently earned his MFA in Creative Writing at Eastern Washington University. He has taught English comp at EWU and Gonzaga University and currently teaches at Goodwill. He lives with his fiance, Alex, in Spokane where they recently had plumbing issues.
