Corby Anderson is a freelance writer based out of Emma, Colorado. A prolific essayist, journalist, reviewer, blogger, poet, and novelist, Anderson’s works have been described as wildly descriptive, outrageous, thoughtful, and important.
Author Jonathon Bastian wrote of Corby in his goodbye letter to the Aspen Daily News, where he was Anderson’s editor in the doomed but brilliant weekly sports magazine Roaring Sports.
“Corby is developing into one of the most frighteningly unique voices in the valley and beyond.”
Sports Illustrated writer Ivan Maisel offered this comment.
“If your columns are half as entertaining as your emails, I plan to read them. Makes me think of trying sleep deprivation”
Major League Baseball (mlb.com) writer Doug Miller had this to say about an Anderson passage:
“This could very well be the greatest lede in the history of writing:
“Magic Johnson has AIDS and I am on several hits of high powered blotter acid.” Bravo.
Anderson holds bloody, hard fought ground somewhere in the middle of a mosh pit that swirls with the flying elbows, knees and teeth of Hemingway, Steinbeck, Thompson, Klosterman, D.F. Wallace, and Rick Reilly.
He considers himself a “sentimental absurdist”, and writes from his artist residency at a tiny old cabin set way back in a pinon and juniper canyon on Shipp Ranch near Aspen Colorado.

Screw that. I say Corby kicks ass!
i co-sign the “kicks ass” comment!
Corby does kick ass, just don’t let him him near your pockets with a handful of rocks.
Corby has a gift for words and for collecting upper-echelon fantasy baseball starting pitching, why? because…..everyone knows good pitching beats good hitting every time.
