Sean Eads, Writer.
Telling stories since the age of 6.
I’ve always had an impulse to tell stories, to invent characters who would cast a shadow, and to write whatever came to my mind regardless of genre and format.
These days I’m a Colorado-based author and reference librarian, and I’m still telling whatever story interests me—I just go wherever my imagination takes me and try to produce the best tale that I can.
I've been fortunate enough to see my work appear in many terrific places, both online and in print. Some have paid very well, others wouldn't get me a hamburger on the McDonald's Dollar Menu.
All I know is that I am compelled to write, and so I do. I hope you find here a story that you’d like to read. In the meantime, I’ll be writing the next one.
Thanks for stopping by!

“I’d never written about my home state and I’ve contemplated my refusal to do so for a good long while.

I take my writing seriously, but I don’t take myself too seriously.
This blog is proof of that.
Come on in, read some of my less-published material, and please take your shoes off—we just had the blog shampooed.
