Brian Rowe
I am currently the Feature Writer for the Action Films / Thrillers section here at Suite 101 Online Magazine. I am a writer living in Reno, Nevada. I received my B.A. in Film at Loyola Marymount University, where my writing appeared in the Los Angeles Loyolan newspaper for four years. I have written and directed over fifty short films, and I have written five feature-length screenplays. My short fiction has been published in over a dozen magazines, including the following: The Absent Willow Review, Dreamspinner Press, Foliate Oak Literary Review, Horror Bound Magazine, Mobius Magazine, Static Movement, Tainted Tea, and Wilde Oats Magazine. I have written three novels--Slate, a dark comedy; Happy Birthday to Me, a fantasy comedy aimed at teenagers; and Townhouse, a horror novel. I love all things film and look forward to sharing my insights on current and classic films, as well as novel writing, short story writing, and awards predictions.
Feel free to visit my blog about my novels at http://mrbrianrowe.blogspot.com, as well as the Amazon page for my first published novel, Slate: http://amzn.to/dOaDkg
