Kyle Garret

Hello, my name is Kyle Garret.  I like to write.  I like a lot of other things, too (music, movies, TV shows in constant danger of cancellation, comic books, Jack Daniels, air conditioning, the Cleveland Indians, and various others), but given the intent of this web site, writing is key.

I spent most of my life in Ohio.  I attended Ohio University for six years where they let me have not just a Bachelor's in English, but also a Master's in Creative Writing.  After that I spent a few years in Atlanta, mostly trying to stay out of the hospital.  I also tried being a rock star for a bit, but that didn't work out.

Eventually I ended up where I am now, in the City of Angels.  I'm currently shopping around a novel called "Reliquary" and a non-fiction book about my grandfather called "I Pray Hardest When I'm Being Shot At" (a mouthful, yes, but given the context it's really great).  Aside from this web site, you can also find my work in a nice little book called "Unrequited and Other Stories," which I've conveniently linked to Amazon for you.  There are a few heady reviews under that listing, most of which were not written by my family members.

I currently live in the best apartment I've ever lived in with my soon-to-be wife and our cats, one of which just came into my office to visit me. 

What I Do

Well, I write, mostly.

Aside from the aforementioned "Reliquary," "I Pray Hardest When I'm Being Shot At," and "Unrequited and Other Stories,"  I have a portfolio stocked with short stories, comic book proposals, graphic novel proposals, and the beginnings of a young adult novel about time travelers and magic.  I've even got an "Angel" spec script lying around somewhere.  I like to leave no stone unturned.

Hey, for that matter I've got a few CDs worth of music by bands I've been in, if that floats your proverbial boat.

As I was saying, I have a rather large stockpile of material just waiting to greet the world.  And that's why I've created this web site.
