Zach Powers lives and writes in Savannah, Georgia. He is writing this bio himself, and writing it in the third person, which to him feels rather pompous. He is averse to pomposity and is really quite personable. You'd like him. Give Zach Powers a chance. Why do you have to be so judgmental? His work, equally self-absorbed, has appeared in Opium Magazine, Pindeldyboz, Paradigm Journal, PANK, and maybe elsewhere but he can't remember. He was the champion of Opium Magazine’s Literary Death Match Savannah, a reading/performance event held in cities throughout the world. His writing for television won an Emmy.
