About Me

Take Your Money Back

My name is Scott M. Sandridge. I was born in Hot Springs, Arkansas, and grew up in Corbin, Kentucky. I now reside in Hilliard, Ohio, where everybody talks funny. I loved writing since early childhood, but I didn't get serious with it until 2000. I enrolled in Long Ridge Writers' Group in February 2001. My first short story, "Treecutter" was published in Issue 4 of The Sword Review in July 2005. Since then I've gone on to publish more short stories, and write reviews for Tangent Online and The Fix: Short Fiction Review . I am also a member of the Critters Writers' Workshop , a columnist for The Sword Review, a Slushmaster (Submissions Editor) for Ray Gun Revival , and an Editor for Fear and Trembling .
