David Meyer is an aspiring adult and a proud Chicagoan from the suburb of Deerfield. Beloved by most, he grew up writing short stories, poetry, and books, mainly for his parents. Dedicated to having the most interesting obituary possible (eventually), David strives to accrue life experiences, and he believes sharing stories and laughter is what life is all about. David currently lives in Los Angeles with his loving TV. He is probably looking for his next writing gig at this very moment. David also loves talking about himself in the third person. David can be reached at david@davidmeyerwriter.com.
