I’m Zeke Springer and welcome to my Wordpress site. This site is dedicated to my literary endeavors. Although under constant construction, you will find short stories, literary commentary and reviews for your enjoyment and criticism. I will greatly appreciate both. It goes without saying that trolls will not be tolerated or fed, so if that’s you then move on. I'm Bronx, NY, born and bred! I still reside in the Bronx with my wife, Rochell. Back in 1990, I graduated with a B.A. in Communications from St. John's University. I like writing science fiction in my spare time, but lately, I've been dabbling in literary fiction and fantasy with an old world African bent. Inspiration comes to me in the works of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Neil Gaiman, Octavia Butler and the films of Akira Kurosawa, James Parrot, Sam Peckinpagh and John Woo among others. My working days are spent as an assistant editor for a cable television network.
