About the author:
For me, writing is the best way to explore and express everything that I love about life. I have a lot of interests – philosophy, psychology, science, art, music, and all forms of fiction – so my writing is fairly eclectic. I am as comfortable writing an essay about the dangers of logic as I am creating a fantasy world where the granddaughter of a god wreaks havoc in a small town. My best stories, I think, combine the above interests in a seamless (or perhaps unseemly) whole.

HUCKLEBERRY MILTON by Bradley J Milton @bradleyjmilton
HUCKLEBERRY MILTON is a brand new rewrite of Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn, set in a time warp between Haight-Ashbury in the Summer of Love and today, right here on the social-media Internet.
