Driven by curiosity, Andrew Hiller‘s stories always begin with a “Huh?” or a “Ha!” A long time reporter and producer for public radio, his novel A Halo of Mushrooms was selected as Best of the Year in 2019, his short story “Half-Lives” won Escape Pod’s Flash Fiction Contest in 2022 and in 2024, Amazing Stories named his story “Time of the Critic” Best of the Year, but his geek heaven period may have been writing skits and voicing them with the original Jim Henson gang. Hornytown Chutzpah is Andrew’s first collaboration/novella with Atthis Arts.
