EVERY day we at Pies publish original work and the best of what others have produced offline and on the web. All our writers are for hire. For years, we’ve produced all manner of copy, books, blogs and websites for clients.

We are:

Rusty Blazenhoff

As the former Communications Specialist for the now defunct Bigrig Industries, a satirical organization that issued paper zines, I have long embraced the activities of the San Francisco Bay Area underground events scene. A true prankster at heart, I was also a proud member of the San Francisco Cacophony Society for many years and around that same time I was a graphic designer for Burning Man. At this amazing moment in time, I own and operate Rusty’s Real Deal, an estate liquidation company serving California’s East Bay area. My life-long passion for all things mysterious and thrifty has led me to pursue this natural calling, and – along with the Real Deal’s sister endeavor, Moxie Deluxe – I continue to dedicate my life to showcasing and celebrating all things beautiful and absurd. It is truly an honor to post right along side some of the most beautiful and absurd people that I know. My tentacle ‘guns’ are a-blazing and I am really looking forward to showing off the skills I learned in Anorak Blogging Boot Camp.

Yeoman Lowbrow:

A working stiff by day, by night a purveyor of retro culture ramblings. Curator of the popular blog Retrospace since ’08, YL still can’t reach the bottom of the well of vintage pop culture goodness.  What began as a hobby to retreat from a career in forensic science, has turned into an unhealthy obsession.  Pray he gets help.

Burt Kearns 

Burt Kearns is an American television and film producer, writer, director, journalist and author, known for his influential work in reality television and his controversial 1999 tabloid television memoir, Tabloid Baby.  Kearns was a pioneer in the trash-tabloid programs that reshaped television news in the ’80s and ’90s, bouncing from A Current Affair in New York to Hard Copy in Los Angeles and back again, often with lawyers nipping at his heels.

Rob Baker

Rob Baker writes the London history website Another Nickel in the Machine and has lived in South London for 25 years. An occasional comedy and entertainment TV Producer –  he’s worked with a motley crew that includes Wallace and Gromit, Jeremy Clarkson and Adam and Joe.

Tim Worstall

He is, as an example of his business and financial perspicacity, the head of the international scandium oligopoly: the only commodity which has not risen in price in the past decade. Odd bits and pieces of his writing have been known to turn up in The Times, the book pages of the Daily Telegraph and the Philadelphia Inquirer, he\’s been a long term contributor toTCS Daily and also blogs for The Business and the Adam Smith Institute.
