Los Angeles, CA

About Me:

Stephen Blackmoore likes to believe he's a fiction writer. Likes to talk about himself like he's not in the room. Or even in the same state. He loves dogs, his wife and coming up with new ways to blow shit up. He's a native of Los Angeles, a town nobody's ever from, where he can hide among the other 15 million crazy fuckers.

He writes a blog called L.A. Noir, chronicling the seedier side of the City of The Angels.

His work has appeared in Shots, Demolition, Spinetingler, Clean Sheets and Flashing In The Gutters. Some day he hopes he can actually make some money of this whole writing thing and stop having to sell blood and his ass on Santa Monica Boulevard.
