  <about><![CDATA[&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2829404.The_Love_Book&quot;&gt;THE LOVE BOOK&lt;/a&gt; is my first collection of short stories. It is also available as an audiobook podcast from Podiobooks, which you can listen to via &lt;a href=&quot;http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=257588798&quot;&gt;iTunes&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.podiobooks.com/title/the-love-book/&quot;&gt;Podiobooks.com&lt;/a&gt;. I live in Brooklyn, NY which is a hell of a lot better than where you live.

You can also read some of my stories as single-story e-books available on Amazon Kindle, Scribd, Smashwords, and Lulu. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kenwohlrob.com/stories.html&quot;&gt;Click here for download/buy links&lt;/a&gt;.

I was the cofounder and editor of Bully Magazine from 1998-2003. My writing has appeared in Opium, The New York Press, Go Metric, Friction Magazine, FreeWilliamsburg, Motel, and AlcoholReviews. I've also participated in the Perpetual Motion Roadshow and the Needle Exchange Hour reading series. In 2006, I became a co-founder--along with indie writers Tim Hall, Brian Cogan, and Mike Faloon--of the Blacksmiths For Literary Progress. 

In addition, I've joined a select group of writers who have chosen to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kenwohlrob.com/podcastaudio.html&quot;&gt;release their work as an audiobook podcast&lt;/a&gt;.]]></about>  <influences><![CDATA[Flannery O'Connor, Charles Bukowski, Kurt Vonnegut, Stephen Crane, Yukio Mishima, Alaine Robbe-Grillet, Mavis Gallant, Sinclair Lewis, Mario Vargas Llosa]]></influences>  <gender>male</gender>    <born_at>01/01/2001</born_at>
