Steve AlmondWelcome, friends, to my humble corner of the internet. I’m Steve Almond, the guy who managed to transform a love affair with candy into an entire book, “Candy Freak,” and who dared to question the sanctity of America’s most beloved sport in “Against Football”.

This site is where I’ve gathered all my words, ideas, and stories that have managed to find their way into the world. From my books to essays, interviews, and everything in between – it’s all here. In these pages, you’ll find the best and worst of me, and all the layers in between.

As a writer, I’ve always believed in pushing boundaries, challenging norms, and questioning everything. My work often combines personal narratives with a broader commentary on our shared society and culture. I strive to shine a light on the unseen, the overlooked, and the misunderstood. I hope my words, like a lens, can offer you new perspectives.

Whether you’ve been with me on this journey for a while or you’ve just stumbled upon my work, I’m grateful you’re here. This website is a testament to my commitment to the written word and a way to share my ongoing explorations with you. So, take a look around, see what catches your eye. You’re always welcome here.

Above all, I hope this site inspires you to question, to challenge, and to engage with the world around you in new ways. Because at the end of the day, that’s what writing—and life—are all about. So, welcome. Here’s to the journey ahead, in all its sweet and bittersweet glory. Welcome to my world. I’m glad you’re here.
