C. Hoyt Caldwell

C. Hoyt Caldwell is a writer with an aggravating affinity for the South, and the people it creates. The characters in his stories are loosely based on folks that both inspired and troubled him growing up in a tiny Tennessee town. He's not smart enough to be subtle, so his work tends to be tasteless and gritty. He's not out to offend anyone, but he's also not out to win anyone over either. His stories are full of sex, violence, and attempts at humor.
