Meet the Podcast Creator
Writing has to hurt…
At least if you want it to be any good.
The hurt doesn't come from writing itself; that's a symptom as much as anything else. It's the memories of a life lived honest that hurt. Scraped knuckles and wounded pride, lost love and the sickening need for vengeance — those hurts are the seeds of good writing. Planted deep, they'll sprout into something great and terrible, something that grows by its own will.
Tyler Bell was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, where his childhood was a lot of hand-me-downs and hard work, of doing whether or not you wanted to and going back out to fight even if you were scared.
And he read. A lot. And thought about writing his own books.
