Bio
Terence Kuch’s fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction has been published in the U.S., U.K., France, Ireland, Canada, Australia, and Thailand, and has appeared in numerous periodicals including Commonweal, Diagram, Dissent, New Scientist, New York magazine, North American Review, Penguin Review, Thema, Timber Creek Review, Washington Post Book World, Washington Post Magazine, and has been anthologized in books from Random House and other publishers. His work has been praised by the New York Times and Kirkus Reviews.
His commercially published fiction (two novels and two short-story collections) is available at www.amazon.com/author/terencekuch. His popular daily microfiction post, Memorable Fancies (at www.terencekuch.com) has attracted many page views.
Terence Kuch was raised in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State. After jobs as a logger and postman, he graduated from Reed College in Portland, Oregon with a degree in philosophy, and later studied at the Corcoran School of Art, Johns Hopkins University, American University (M.S.), and Virginia Tech (Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study). His pre-retirement career was spent in information technology as a manager, and then Vice President of two I.T. firms.
He has survived interviews by the New York Times (on I.T. for consumers) and USA Today (on 20th-century fiction).
He once appeared in concert in the East Village with The Fugs ‘protopunk’ group, playing the tambourine because the only space left was on stage. At other times, with Pauline Kael he witnessed the burning of St. Mary’s Cathedral in San Francisco, and spent a week with Alan Watts on the Bahía de Banderas.
He lives in Springfield, Virginia, with a wife and several opinionated cats.
