From an early age, Michael Bryan Kerr imagined himself as a writer. He has been a member of the Shoreline Writers’ Society for many years, during which time he has experimented with various forms and styles, and played with the novel form.

Michael’s Quotes

“The paradox of vengefulness is that it makes men dependent upon those who have harmed them, believing that their release from pain will come only when their tormentors suffer.”
