BRIAN KOSCIENSKI developed his love of writing from countless hours of reading comic books, losing himself in the different worlds and adventures within the colorful pages. He had minor successes early in his career by getting a few short stories published in independent ‘zines before teaming up with Chris Pisano and Jeff Young to form The Novel Guys. Together they have logged many hours writing novels, stories, articles, comic books, reviews, and the occasional ridiculous haiku.

If you happen to see Brian at one of the various conventions he participates in, feel free to stop by the table and say, “Hi.” He’s harmless!
