Blaze has lived in many different places, including Kansas, The Ozarks, Breckenridge, and SoCal. He's also done a number of things, some of which are even past the statute of limitations now. The ones he'll tell you about (without the need for full anonymity) include being a bouncer at a cowboy bar outside a Marine base, a volunteer storm-spotter with the county fire department, and herding nerds at a small software company. He currently lives Seattle-ish and tells stories in most every form of English you can, and a few other languages.
