New Jersey-born author who never pulls his writing punches!
Even though within the next few years he would be a well-published author, Brian had never taken any creative writing classes, despite his dream of being published. In fact, beyond a few close friends, he hardly even shared his writing with anyone even though he wrote all the time. He had sent stories to journals and magazines but always found rejection.
Over the next few years, Brian would continue to write gritty YA; 2003 brought Tomorrow, Maybe, the story of a 15-year-old runaway girl living in NYC who takes an 11-year-old fellow runaway under her wing; Perfect World, the story of a young woman coping with her father's suicide and trying to reconnect emotionally with the world, was published in 2005; and Dirty Liar, the companion to Perfect World, premiered in February 2006 and is the story of a misunderstood young man who has escaped the abuse of his mother's boyfriend by moving across the country to live with his father and stepmother, and how through the women in his life he learns to cope.
Brian, now 30, recently moved with his wife upstate to Phoenicia, where Brian is now hard at work on a series about Catkid, half-cat and half-girl!
In 2002, Brian attended the Philidelphia Guns N Roses concert. Unfortunately Axel Rose never showed and a riot broke out! Luckily, Brian got out okay!
Brian is "eagerly awaiting the day when rock stars take over the world."
Did you know?: Brian wrote the first draft of Tomorrow, Maybe in just three weeks!
