Recommendations!

Today I want to recommend a writer to all of you. His name is Brian Broome, and he is an up and coming writer from Pittsburgh, PA. Although I do not know Brian personally, we are from the same town, and I was turned on to his writing by a friend of mine who used to work with him waiting tables and bar-tending at Harris Grill in Pgh. He comes to mind when I think of digital writing, because I first became acquainted with his writing through his Facebook page, which he used (still uses) as a blog of sorts. He publishes long "status updates" about everything form his often odd rides on the city's public transportation, to his mom, to his day to day adventures, to his anxiety, to his recovery form addiction, to his views on race, politics, and so many current issues. He is hilarious, but also serious at times, and extremely intelligent and thought-provoking. When he goes on a Facebook break (I think he is on one right now) I miss his writing and his views. I will link his website below, which has several of his published stories available to read. If he comes back online on his Facebook page, I will link that in the comments (his profile is public and you can "follow" him. He is currently working on his first full length book deal, and is a Fellow in the creative writing Masters program at the University of Pittsburgh.
