Welcome to the Pirate’s Library.

We’re not too formal around here. Grab a comfy chair, kick off your boots, and the bar is always open. We’re glad you’re here.

Our Captain is Sean Nordquist. He’s an aspiring writer (don’t let the ‘aspiring’ part fool you, he’s an old sea dog), educator, adventurer, and galley cook. We’re going to read together. Poems, short stories, random musings, and the ongoing novel he’s working on. We hope you’ll stick around.

Writer, reader, storyteller. Traveller and adventurer. Creating gives me life, whether it is a new story, a new receipe, and a new idea. I'm not here for politics.
