G LongtaleG. Longtale is a writer, wanderer, and professional bad decision-maker who somehow keeps surviving long enough to document the wreckage. A self-proclaimed connoisseur of airport bars, questionable life choices, and the fine art of talking his way outof things, he's spent years bouncing between boardrooms and back alleys-drinking hard, thinking harder, and occasionally making himself useful in between. His debut, Dark & Stormy Nights: Tales Best Left Untold, peeled back the layers of expatriate misadventure, blurring the line between memory and myth. Some of it happened exactly as written. Some of it happened differently. Some of it should have happened that way. Now, with the Corporate Crusader series, he turns his sharp eye and sharper wit toward the world of high-functioning degeneracy-where PowerPoint decks and criminal intent aren't mutually exclusive, and sometimes the only way to fix a problem is to remove it entirely. Longtale's stories exist in that murky space between lived experience, half-remembered embellishment, and the fantasy conclusions he should have gone with at the time. When not writing, he can be found drinking a perfectly chilled vodka in a first-class lounge, a lukewarm beer in a dive bar that smells of regret, or a bottle of mad dog 20:20 on a park bench at an hour when no one should be drinking-fitting in just enough to be left alone, but never enough to belong.
