A life-long reader of speculative fiction, Rustin’s love of epic tales spurred a desire to write his own. His work has appeared in Cosmic Roots and Eldritch Shores and the Volume 35 Writers of the Future anthology. He is beyond excited to share STRANGEBREW APOTHCOCARY with the world—his debut fantasy novel about a magic potion-maker hiding within a crew of snake-oil salesmen. Rustin can often be found in a Maryland coffee shop, where he’ll be tapping on his laptop and completely lost in his own head. He resides near Washington D.C. with his wife, two young daughters, and a mini-dachshund known as Lady Little Legs.
