On Distant Worlds: The Prologues & Colibri

Brian Gonzalez is an experimental artist and writer who studied Fine Art at San Diego State University. During a lifetime in the creative arts he has taught fine art and curated art shows as well as producing and directing music videos, publishing a web-comic, teaching creativity in elementary school, and performing in several improvisational comedy groups.

His prior writing experience includes working as a sportswriting newspaper stringer and, as one of his cartoon characters, publishing humorous poetry. He also previously published a short story in a now-defunct journal. On Distant Worlds #1 is his first novel.

The son of a United Nations food expert, Brian grew up in five different developing countries and the Panama Canal Zone as well as the United States, and brings his fascination with the different people and natural environments of the world to his writing. His love of history and deep curiosity about the universe around us also feature prominently in his work.

Brian has three adult children and lives in Southern California with his wife, along with some hungry and character-driven dogs.
