Conor J. Murphy began his writing career at 18 years old at a small news/talk radio station in his hometown of Decatur, Ill. After successfully knocking the station off air more times than he cares to remember, Murphy went on to graduate from Illinois State University with a degree in journalism. Considered most likely to violate FCC regulations by his peers, Murphy worked as both an arts and entertainment reporter and general assignment reporter for TV-10 News in Normal, Ill.
Annoyed with the Society of Professional Journalists’ absurd demand for high standards and ethics in reporting, Murphy retired from journalism to pursue a career in creative writing, preferring to play fast and loose with the facts and refusing to let accuracy get in the way of a good story.
Murphy has contributed his sharp wit and self-effacing humor to hundreds of magazines and journals; unfortunately, few have accepted.Conor now writes for www.waywarduncle.com.
