About the Book

"Birds of a Feather: short stories & miscellany" is the debut work of fiction by Arik Bjorn, who recently ran for U.S. Congress as the 2016 Democratic Party / Green Party fusion candidate for South Carolina's 2nd Congressional District.

With these five short stories and one slap-happily 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 has eight books available on Amazon, including his first novel, "The Prodigal" (2020). "The Prodigal" took 25 years to complete, and is a contemporary, comedic reshaping of The Divine Comedy.

Bjorn was the 2016 Democratic Party U.S. Congressional candidate for South Carolina's 2nd District. He works as a public librarian, and currently resides in Columbia, South Carolina.

His writing has been featured on a number of national websites. He has been read by lots of folks in 190 countries. Follow him on Twitter, Facebook and at his website VikingWord.com.
