Lemon Puppy Annual

About Me

I'm Michael Tesney publisher of Lemonpuppy Annual, we publish short fiction, fiction, serialized novels, poetry, essays, plays photography, and comics. Before lemonpuppy, I built and ran a recording studio at the University of Alabama where I taught radio drama and creative imagination at the New College, in between bouts of insanity I found myself in New York and New Orleans doing freelance design work, scriptwriting, electrical, sound design, whatever I could do to keep out of Alabama for a while. And before that was a three year run at Naropa University where I wrote plays for the LTO and got in a great deal of trouble for my politics.
