Keoki Le Monday is an American Novelist, Patron of the Arts, Musician, Voice-Over Artist, Ultramarathon Runner, inventor of the ‘Arc Prompt Theory’, Neo-Hop Vodun, and Founder of the publishing company Keoki’s Psyche. He is best known for writing the novel Mad Gods (2023), which collects Book One ‘The Spiral’ of his Omniverse Myths series.
His distinctive writing style is distinguishable due to his fetishism of provocative taboos, an aestheticization of violence and profanity, references to a variety of cinema, eccentric dialogue, anthropomorphism, eccentric approach to imagination, and use of black humor.
George L. Mundy IV promotes a vegetarian, pacifist, and minimalist lifestyle, along with supporting animal rights activism.
