Author Profile: Tyson F. Sleete

With the launch of the first issue, we wanted to give readers some insight into the contributors. Tyson Sleete, now in Brooklyn, was a staple of the Detroit scene in the years preceding his Michigan exodus. He can always be counted on for a late night drink and ramble as well as any ridiculous debauchery one can conjure up. Meet Mr. Sleete, as described by the notorious Geoffrey Baszczuk:

Tyson F. Sleete dabbles in business throughout his days, before returning to his castle each evening to extrapolate theological axioms, matters of high finance, the Rococo era, and whether hand sanitizers negatively affect one's immunity to certain viruses. Tyson was born and raised outside Detroit, MI He currently resides in Brooklyn, NY with his wife and pet turtle. His writing is, admittedly, a verified byproduct of 4 parts vodka, 3 parts nicotine.
