Writer

Brent began writing letters at an early age while spending summers away at his grandparents farm in southwestern Michigan. He learned to use the correct conventions in writing and he masked over the stuffy style by using humor and sarcasm liberally. Brent likes writers like Amy Tan and Mark Twain, because he tends to use them as models of the writing craft. He does like reading classics and biographies and histories. He would like to write a history or a memoir. Lately he has tried writing in a genre that is out of his comfort zone, and is finding it to be a pleasant challenge.
