Brian Dolton has spent the last twenty years trying to amass
enough interesting life experiences so that his writer's bio will
make him appear far more interesting than he actually is. He
has ridden a camel in the Sahara, stayed in a Zen monastery
on a holy mountain in Japan, and played volleyball on a
sandbar in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Now these
distractions are out of the way he can finally concentrate on
sitting at a computer and writing.
His other work includes:
"The Box Of Beautiful Things" (IGMS#3)
"The Man Who Was Never Afraid" (Abyss & Apex #20)
"The Unicorn Hunter" (OG's Speculative Fiction #8)

Lawrence Barker's fiction tends toward genre-crossing. His recent
genre-crossers range from the science fiction/fantasy/murder mystery
tale of an heroic ghoul Mother Feral's Love to the fantasy/horror
account of the old bug eater's side of the story Renfield to The
Blood Red Sphere, a noir mystery scheduled to be published in Fall
08 by Swimming Kangaroo Press.
Lawrence's short fiction and poetry have appeared in Weird Tales,
Aberrant Dreams, Dark Legacy, Mindflights, and a variety of
other periodicals.
Lawrence lives outside Atlanta, Georgia, in a house over-run with
cats. Only I Will Know the Truth originated in Lawrence's noticing
that very little has been done in fantasy literature with harpies ... and,
as far as he knows, nothing else has been done in which the harpies
aren't all they seem.
