Ben Tyler Elliott holds a master’s degree in English literature, and his research explored the symbiotic relationships between allegory, angst, and the subversive narrative. Whenever he isn’t reading or writing, he can likely be found riding his bicycle, baking bread, or wallowing in Wikipedia’s quieter corners. He’s a lifelong fan of Major League Baseball’s San Francisco Giants and, consequently, his second favorite team is whoever is playing the Los Angeles Dodgers today.
