Nicholas Michael Ravnikar worked as a dishwasher, nonprofit program coordinator, general laborer, tutor and video producer before he earned his MFA from Naropa University. After eight years as a college prof, he quit to repair bathtubs and work the deadline shift on a newspaper copy desk. In fact he's quit nearly every job he's ever had. He’s also been a substance abuse prevention agency success coach and marketing copywriter. Married with two kids, he’s been sober since 2011 and lives with borderline personality, persistent depression and ADHD. Lifting weights, art & meditation take up most of his free time.
