If indie rock, experimental fiction, and gay porn were categories on JEOPARDY! author Dennis Cooper would win big.
Infamous for stories depicting hard drugs, vapid boys, and violent sex, Dennis is a self-taught expert on an array of fringe subjects. Each day he posts in-depth, passionate, hilarious writing on topics ranging from Thurston Moore, to Shirley Temple, to how to make a fog machine, arranged amidst personal notes to regular readers, and photos of gay dudes rimming each other (note: viewing from work is not advised).
An editor at Art Forum and the playwright who brought KTL together, DC knows his shit. His blog is a gay, punk rock Wikipedia. Awesome.
