Welcome! You have reached the official website of Author Brian Trent.

I belong to that strange and wonderful society known as Writers. We have dual citizenship here, and therefore travel freely between this world and the world of the possible. If you’re reading this, you have arrived at the foyer to my virtual home… so take off your coat and rest from your travels.

I am a writer of novels, screenplays, poetry, short stories and nonfiction in a variety of genres. I am a dedicated world traveler, a haunt of libraries and ruins, and a sailor on tomorrow’s seas. I work on independent films and collaborate with a circle of devoted friends and talented artists. Most of all, though, I am interested in the realities of the world and in its possibilities. Ideas. Characters. Times and Places. We have an open-ended train ticket to an exotic unending landscape.

My interests, like yours, are not exclusive to a single genre. Think about film: Do we really watch only one type of movie or book, or can we enjoy The Godfather, The Matrix, Silence of the Lambs, The Lord of the Rings, In Brugues, and Before Sunrise? We don’t limit ourselves to just one interest in life. And why should we? There’s so much to learn, see, and explore. It doesn’t always fit into neat marketing holes. A toddler learns pattern recognition by fitting plastic geometries into place – square, circle, triangle. But let’s not forget there are various polyhedrons which didn’t make it into the kindergarten kit.

Therefore, I welcome you to my humble site. Look around, stay awhile, and drop a message if you like.
