After barely surviving graduate school and faking his way to a quasi-respectable career in the fire escape trade, William stumbled grandly back into music in 2004 with his own prog-rock outfit, Eccentric Orbit. In addition to torturing his fellow Minstrels with his often-questionable sense of humor, William also pretends to play bass and sing in the classic rock band, Brave Pursuit, pretends to pretend to play guitar in The Yasu Suzuki Method, and epitomizes the concept of “imposter syndrome” with his new Urban Fantasy book series, Uncommon Bonds.
