Brian is a writer based in Western Pennsylvania. He writes horror, fantasy, and literary fiction, and publishes his novel and webcomics through Newisca Press. He reads widely and reviews what he reads here, along with the movies, comics, and tabletop RPGs that have shaped his imagination as much as any book.
\nBy day, Brian works in strategy and innovation, where he spends his time figuring out how things could work better. That habit follows him home: he builds his own tools, tinkers with automation, and treats his writing process like one more system worth improving.
\nHe almost always writes with music on, picking what he listens to for the mood of the scene. When he's not at the keyboard, he's exploring the region he calls home or spending time with his family.
