Authors Who Happened To Be Birthed In March

It’s the beginning of March! Well, technically yesterday was March’s beginning. But who’s counting? With all of the roaring the March Lion has displayed thus far the days will begin to blend into one giant gray malaise anyway. And though there is some shitty weather to be had in March, there are an equal amount of birthdays for some powerhouse writers. I wonder how they will spend their annual reminder of the approach of Death with his giant scythe or, possibly, novelty sized candy cane. Oh laugh now, but you haven’t seen Death in a physical manifestation either. But if you have, tell him that I’m only kidding. And that I want to have a Shetland Pony as my sole form of transportation in the next life. Though I’m really not sure who would be in charge of that department. Anyway, celebrate accordingly. (If you wish to mirror my common celebratory methods, purchase a lot of hydrogen peroxide, Neosporin and bandages. You’ll need them for your knees once you’re finished with all of the power slides in the living room.)
