About Stephen Brennan

The name Brennan actually comes from “Burn Hand”. Back in medieval days that was the title of a somewhat unpleasant fellow who doled out the colorful punishments of the time. So I guess you could say I’ve got a little bit of the gothic in my blood. I’ve always had a flare for the dramatic and I love a good story.I was born in Mount Pearl, Newfoundland on September 3rd, 1981. Mount Pearl is actually a valley, but don’t ask me to tell that story because I’ve forgotten most of it. All in all Newfoundland harbors one of the most unusual cultures you’ll find anywhere, and also some of the friendliest people. I love my home and I get back there whenever I can, but opportunity and the promise of new experiences brought me to where I currently live in Calgary, Alberta.Calgary isn’t New York by any stretch, but its got all the big city amenities. That and its a short drive from some of the most beautiful unspoiled country you could ask for. Often on the weekends I’ll be out riding trails on my quad, or doing the odd bit of hiking. Closer to home I like playing with my tiny fleet of cars. Got a 2006 Mustang and a 1978 F250, which is actually a character in my story “The Darkness Between”. They do say you should write what you know after all. Then again, I come up with some of the most random ideas you’ve ever heard of. The monster in that story actually evolved from a vision I had one day of a ghostly cloaked figure riding a motorcycle handsfree while playing the fiddle. To this day I have no idea what the hell brought that on; I was just walking home from work.That’s getting off on a tangent though. I also have a guitar I’m too lazy to learn how to play, but I do love classic rock among other things. I guess I could keep going with the “long walk on a beach” stuff but I’ll spare you. Really hope that you get a chance to enjoy one of my stories; I’m sure you’ll find them original if nothing else. Good life and happy reading!...
