William Evans was a dedicated corporate employee before wandering into an Open Mic in August 2005. Since then, hes been on four National Poetry Slam teams out of Columbus, OH, being crowned Grand Slam Champ twice. Hes been a member of three Rustbelt Regional Finals teams, including the 2009 Championship team where Will also finished 3rd overall as an individual. William has produced two CDs: Living in the Hour Glass (2006) & Measure (2007), released his first chapbook: Humble Shell Casings (January 2009) and his first full length manuscript: In the Event You are Caught Behind Enemy Lines on Penmanship Books in July 2009.
