Chester Abbotsbury is the pseudonym of a man currently incarcerated within a CSC penitentiary. Jailed for nearly two years at the provincial-level awaiting trial, he pleaded to “10 more years” within the federal system. His Gonzo New Journalism has appeared in print in Canada, Germany, Japan, Great Britain and the United States prior to his arrest. He has published while incarcerated and is working on a series of essays, of which “What’s in a Name?” is one, entitled Pen 101. He also writes speculative fiction and voluminous correspondence.
