Nick Leftley has been writing and editing for nearly two decades, and now often spells words like “entrepreneurial” right on only his third or fourth try. His work has appeared in MEL, Delayed Gratification, Time Out New York, Thrillist, Bizarre, InsideHook, NME, Maxim, Inked and many, many others. He has written, performed and produced various forms of comedy, smells quite nice, and knows far too much about animals. He is still oddly uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person.
