John C. Dupr� (originally John C. Tremblay) is a fiction writer and award-winning technical writer from New England. He's a graduate of University of Massachusetts at Lowell; and his first flash fiction piece was published in AlienSkin Magazine in 2005. Subsequent work has been published in numerous online magazines, including Allegory, New Realm (previously eFantasy), and Silver Blade. He also wrote the introduction to Day's End from RMR press, the second monograph of the work of Mark L. Eshbaugh.When he's not writing, John divides his time between creative projects, bonding with his family, geeking out about Doctor Who, and (on occasion) sleeping.
