JONATHAN SILVER

I guess this is where I talk about myself in third person pretending to be someone else, telling you that I am a great writer that and you should definitely buy my books, yadda yadda yawn.

I hate when writers yap about themselves in third-person “he was born blahblahblah, he studied at blahblahblah” like it's some kind of eulogy. I assure you I'm not dead! I checked my pulse this morning and there it was, solid as a morning wood. I tried the third-person thing as my publisher recommended but it doesn't work for me, sorry.

My name is Silver, Jonathan Silver, a.k.a. The Silver-man, Señor Silverado, The Great Silverini, Silver-san. I am the great adverb-bender, an acrobat of the descriptive, a metaphor-minded visionary. I am the Robin Hood of the erudite, I steal from the richly-vocabularied and shoot grammatical arrows in the ass of the poorly-literate.
