Who the Hell Is Blake Donley?

Blake Charles Donley was born and raised in Excelsior, MN. An IT geek by trade, he waited 26 years to pursue what he wanted to be when he grew up. A writer at heart, he is forever asking himself, “How would I write this?” With a penchant for unforgettable characters, uncomfortable reality, and “the great American novel”, he toils mainly in the realm of literary fiction. A chance reunion with the HiFi stack of his youth sparked an obsession with vintage stereo gear that influences nearly everything he writes.
