My new novel, HOW TO CONTACT THE LIVING, is out now!

Devoted reader, angry writer, and lifelong procrastinator. I grew up in Ireland, spent many years in Australia, and my twin passions are punk music and all things paranormal. I read all genres and write in some of them.

Feel free to Friend and/or Follow me on Goodreads where I maintain a (too) active presence and will mostly be found chatting in movie discussion group threads instead of doing anything vaguely productive. You can also visit www.bryanfarrellauthor.com for free stories and bonus content! ...more
