Richard Fulco was the lead singer in several New York bands. When he grew tired of having to pay to play and paying for his own beer, he enrolled in Brooklyn College where he received an MFA in playwriting. His plays have either been presented or developed at The New York International Fringe Festival, The Playwrights’ Center, The Flea, Here Arts Center, Chicago Dramatists and the Dramatists Guild. Still having to pay to play and pay for his own beer, he decided to write short stories and novels. His stories and reviews have appeared in The Brooklyn Rail, Failbetter, Front Porch, Dark Sky Magazine, Nth Position, and the Daily Vault. He’s still obsessed with music and writes about it on his blog, Riffraf.typepad.com.
