AUTHOR OF ALL ILL

Titled after an epithet used for the fallen angel in Paradise Lost, AUTHOR OF ALL ILL is a pledge to Satan. At the same time, it is both an ode to and an elegy for the author’s own falling. About the author: Charlie Perseus (he/they) writes gothic-influenced fictions and gloomy poetry— when he isn’t busy studying or editing warning lines literary. He wrote PLACES (Gutslut Press), and AUTHOR OF ALL ILL (fifth wheel press), and has been featured in the NoSleep Podcast, the HELL IS REAL Anthology, and others. His work is often connected to transness, disability, and alterity as they relate to monstrosity and revolution. Find him on twitter @beelzebadger.
