Brian is a science fiction writer with roots in the online serialized fiction arena. His mission is to create stories that thrust ordinary, modern-day citizens into fantastic scenarios through elements of science fiction. After publishing five sci-fi novels, he turned to his lifelong love of film to adapt The Magician's Horses into a feature length screenplay titled Escape 2120. He plans to adapt his other novels as well as develop other original screenplays. When Brian is not at a computer keyboard or tinkering in his workshop, he enjoys a hectic lifestyle with his wife and active teenage children.

Birthplace of a NovelAs an aspiring author, many words have originated on my laptop keyboard as I lay stretched out on our living room sofa, late at night with everyone else fast asleep. But the opening chapters of the Misplaced series were born quite differently. Far away from home in a small rental cottage near Sandusky Ohio, a football field from the shore of Lake Erie, sits the birthplace of my second novel.

Just Keep Writing!I've read from more than one successful author that the best marketing tactic for promoting a book is to publish another book. In keeping with that spirit, I had striven to become a prolific author, publishing my fourth novel only weeks before posting this article.
