A writer is so much more than just a weaver of words they are the ones that create worlds we may not otherwise discover. I have been writing for as long as I can remember. My passion is Science Fiction and Fantasy. I love the concept of Quantum Physics. The Guild offers me a chance to express myself freely and I love them for that. I’m currently attending East Tennessee State University receiving my second degree in Biological Psychology, my first being in Literature. I love writing and I love meeting those who love the craft. I’m currently writing my first novel.

July 2011 Talent of the Month Winner: Billy Bryant
I’ve been singing since I was 12 years old. I wanted to be able to play an instrument while I would sing so I picked up my dad’s guitar and used his chord charts to learn how to play. I started writing songs in high school but was never satisfied enough to share them with anyone. After my dad passed away in 2005 I started writing songs as a way to deal with this intense pain I was going through. During this time I wrote the first songs I would ever be satisfied with enough to share with others. Four songs that are the most significant to me are “North”, “surrounding”, “here in Tenneessee”, and “there’s A Place.” Since then I have continued to write non-stop and love to share these songs in coffee houses and other small venues around the local area.
