Shane Halbach lives in Chicago with his wife and two kids, where he writes software by day and avoids writing stories by night. He has been accused of obsession with pirates, bacon, zombies, and his kids (not necessarily in that order). He’s a knitter, guitar player, and budding accordionista, and his fiction has appeared on Escape Pod, Redstone SF, Daily Science Fiction, and elsewhere. He has been blogging regularly at shanehalbach.com since 2004, and can be found on Twitter @shanehalbach.

Grant My Powder Be Dry and My Aim Be True by Shane Halbach can be found in Anthology I: A Collection of 8 Science Fiction & Fantasy Short Stories. It's a fantasy story about a man discovering himself, and challenging a god in the process.
