A Little More About Jonah Stills

Listen...

There’s a very real possibility that Jonah Stills is currently in the middle of a midlife crisis. It is unclear whether or not an official diagnosis for such a condition is possible, but In July of last year he quit a great job, with great benefits, and decided to enroll in classes. Years ago, he had walked away from his education in favor of haphazard adventures and ill-conceived flights of fancy, fueled by bad decision making and imprudent abandon. He had been a good student his whole life and had consistently earned respectable grades. His mother once told him that it was because he had a “restless soul.” She was one of the most intelligent people Jonah has ever known, but he still thinks that it was a slight oversimplification. Failing to earn his degree had always been a huge source of regret in his life, so he opted for a course-correction.

 

A rewrite or revision, if you will.  If all goes well, Jonah will finally earn his BA in English/Creative Writing in June of this year.

He grew up in a barren and impossibly hot wasteland called Phoenix and scuttled right the hell out of there at his first opportunity. Over the next couple of decades his restlessness (as his mother called it) and a penchant for bad decision making brought him to New York City, San Francisco, and Seattle, before he finally settled down in a small New England town in southern New Hampshire. He is currently forty-something years old. If you wanted an exact number, you’d have to ask his wife.
