Birds of a Feather: short stories & miscellany is the debut work of fiction by Arik Bjorn.
With these five short stories and one slaphappily true essay, the author responds to his fundamentalist Christian background and counters with rebel angels (“Indiana”), resurrected humanists (“Vonnegut Lives!”) and imbibing ministers (“Birds of a Feather”)—plus divinely-disappeared red states and farting orange tabbies. Bjorn imagines a fresh Christian mythology that runs Möbius strip circles around the apocalyptic-poppycock fiction of Frank Peretti and the Left Behind series.
Arik Bjorn lives in Columbia, South Carolina. He is a graduate of Evangelical Ground Zero, Wheaton College. In 2016, he ran for U.S. Congress as the Democratic Party / Green Party fusion candidate for South Carolina's 2nd Congressional District.
Visit his website, VikingWord, to read his articles at Forward Progressives and Patheos, as well as his fiction and personal blog, The Viking & the River Horse. His most recent title is also his first book of verse, "Pocket Lint."
