Benjamin Sonnek

Benjamin Sonnek is the editor of the Sauk Centre Herald and an award-winning columnist and journalist. A Benedictine College alumnus, he won their annual short fiction award three times during his studies, and graduated summa cum laude with a degree in English, although he's not entirely sure how. His short stories have appeared in Daily Science Fiction, Aphelion, Perihelion, Edify Fiction, Sonder Midwest, and the Planet Raconteur podcast. He and his wife, Maggie, live with their three little boys in the heart of darkest central Minnesota, where it's actually quite nice when not frozen solid. Follow Benjamin on Twitter and Instagram @ultrasonnek; don't follow him in real life, though, because that raises the suspicion levels of his android sniper-bodyguard ‘Mr. Twitchy.'
