Bryan Hall

Bryan Hall is a fiction writer living in a one hundred year old farmhouse deep in the mountains of North Carolina.

He spent the first nineteen years of his life writing and reading voraciously, until pausing for some befuddling reason to spend a decade drinking whiskey and beer, playing in various garage bands, and rock climbing, eventually conquering practically every worthwhile cliff in western North Carolina.

Although a bad back has greatly hindered his rock climbing, he still considers himself an aficionado of good beer and great whiskey, which seem to add fuel to his demented imagination.

Growing up in the Appalachias, he's soaked up decades of fact and fiction from the area, bits and pieces of which usually weave their way into his writing whether he realizes it at the time or not.

Several of his stories can be found in print magazines, online e-zines, and in upcoming anthologies. The short story collection "WHISPERS FROM THE DARK" gathers together 14 of the best shorts he's published to date. His first novel, CONTAINMENT ROOM SEVEN, is now available from Permuted Press. In August 2012 the first novella in his "SOUTHERN HAUNTINGS SAGA" will be released by Angelic Knight Press. You can visit him online at www.bryanhallfiction.com
