Ian Welke

Ian Welke writes science fiction, fantasy, and horror. His short stories have appeared in KZine, , Arcane II, Zombie Jesus and Other True Stories, and the American Nightmare anthology among others. The Whisperer in Dissonance is his first novel.

Before writing full time, Ian worked in the computer games industry. He was lucky enough to work at Blizzard Entertainment and at Runic Games. These days, when he’s not at his desk writing, Ian enjoys a variety of games. His favorites tend to be elaborate board games with many pieces and rules to confuse, though he’s happiest going mad with his characters in the Call of Cthulhu RPG.

Ian lived in Seattle for six years, enjoying the rain, but has returned home to Long Beach, California, where he schemes to find shelving to house all of the books he reads.
