Lancelot Schaubert has sold work to markets such as MacMillan (TOR.com), The New Haven Review (Yale’s Institute Library), The Anglican Theological Review, McSweeney’s, Writer’s Digest, The World Series Edition of Poker Pro, Standard Publishing, the Poet’s Market, and many, many similar markets. Spark + Echo selected him as their 2019 artist in residence, commissioning him to craft more than a dozen short fiction pieces. He has ghostwritten and edited for NYT Bestsellers, written copy for large international nonprofit orgs and companies, and has served as an editor for bestselling fantasy authors Juliet Marillier, Kaaron Warren, and Howard Andrew Jones (for Of Gods and Globes). He also worked as a senior editor / producer for The Joplin Toad and Showbear Family Circus — the circus in its heyday published works from over 400 academics, authors, and artists. Links available: http://lanceschaubert.org/about-lancelot/ https://lanceschaubert.org/about-the-showbear-family-circus/ As a producer and director-writer, he started out at fifteen in high school as a radio DJ and a regional thespian and never quite slowed down: he reinvented the photonovel through Cold Brewed with Mark Neuenschwander. That work caught the attention of the Missouri Tourism Board (as well as the Chicago Museum of Photography), who commissioned them to create a second photonovel, The Joplin Undercurrent. He also worked on films with Flying Treasure, WRKR, etc.. He helped judge the Brooklyn Film Festival and NYC Film Festival. And he wrote and produced the albums All Who Wander and H.A.L.T.S., both of which he performed in NYC venues like Rockwood Music Hall. This all culminated in the narration of his debut novel, which Publisher’s Weekly called “a hoot.” He’s currently on assignment in Alaska for a documentary film, in Brooklyn for a documentary film on the arts, a third in Brooklyn for a potential criminal justice story, and many other projects. On his site, he shares his words and lend his voice to try to help people think cleverer, feel deeper, and act truer. But more importantly, the team and he have actively published the poems, essays, stories, art, interviews, and academic abstracts of others who do the same. Their work is more important than his for the very reason that deference hints at depth and wit and the good life right around the corner in someone else’s life. He is, he supposes, a virtue ethicist in that sense: the good thing is whatever the perfectly virtuous person would do. Therefore, he points to all of my mentors at their best moments. He believes that art should not merely entertain or sell product. He believes art should cause us to change our minds, soften our hearts, and motivate our activism to be true and good. And therefore artists manual and fine alike should not seek first to be richer, smarter, sexier, cooler, more relevant, more tech savvy, or more powerful. They must seek to be better and to make things that will make others better: this — virtue — is the soul of true renown and is his one and only goal with all of my work. Starting in 2013, over 240+ patrons have made it possible for he and his wife to shepherd folks in this from Brooklyn to Alaska to London to Italy and we’ve been full time in the effort since 2016. They raise funds, friends, and minds for artists. :: PRAISE FOR LANCELOT SCHAUBERT :: “Schaubert’s words have an immediacy, a potency, an intimacy that grab the reader by the collar and say ‘Listen, this is important!’ Probing the bones and gristle of humanity, Lancelot’s subjects challenge, but also offer insights into redemption if only we will stop and pay attention.” — Erika Robuck, National Bestselling Author of Hemingway’s Girl “Loved this story because Lancelot wrote about people who don’t get written about enough and he did it with humor, compassion, and heart.” — Brian Slatterly, author of Lost Everything and editor of The New Haven Review “I’m such a fan of Lancelot Schaubert’s work. His unique view of things and his life-wisdom enriches all he does. We’re lucky to count him among our contributors.” — Therese Walsh, author of The Moon Sisters and Editorial Director of Writer Unboxed “Lancelot Schaubert writes with conviction but without the cliché and bluster of the propaganda that is so common in this age of blogs and tweets. Here is a real practitioner of the craft who has the patience to pay attention. May his tribe increase!” — Jonathan Wilson Hartgrove, author of Common Prayer and The Awakening of Hope “Lancelot was the kind of student every writing teacher hopes to have in her class: attentive, thoughtful, a bit quirky, and innovative. Since his time in my classroom, he has continued to impress me. He ‘sees,’ and his essays, poetry, and fiction are full of details that enable his audience to see. Bravo, Lance.” — Jackina Stark, author of Things Worth Remembering and Tender Grace “Schaubert’s narratives are emotionally stirring with both a vulnerable sensibility and rawness to them. They take you on a journey full of open wounds, intimate successes and personal delights. Lancelot’s words have a calmness, a natural ease but the meaning is always commanding and dynamic.” — Natalie Gee, Brooklyn Film Festival
