Patrick O'Hannigan is a father of two who works as a technical writer and editor in North Carolina. He plays diatonic harmonica, enjoys roots music, and considers himself a fan of the Oxford comma, the Dublin pint, and the Lexington barbecue. Patrick's writing has appeared in defunct publications like "The New Pantagruel" and still-going concerns like "American Spectator Online." He is not quite as Irish as his name might imply.
