CHANNILLO

Series Description:

In the outside world, writers starve to have their words consumed and considered. On the inside, every 'letter' is sacred and sav(i)ored.

In a nutshell, it's correspondence between a guy and woman in prison... and another guy with the same name... and occasional other characters (you know how destiny and randomness go.)

"And... we're done."

Author Bio For Brian Dykeman:

Known for his provocative thoughts and concise, esoteric delivery, Brian has spent his life chasing what he wants to do when he grows up. From preparing taxes, to selling auto parts he also enlisted in the Marine Corps and served as a Heavy Equipment Operator during this generation's war, and as a Marine Security Guard in Quito, Ecuador; Beijing and Shanghai China and in Brussels, Belgium. Currently spending his time working on his first novel 'the Big Kosher Dinner' Brian is also an actor in Portland, Oregon; you can see him as 'Man in Black 4' on the last two episodes of Grimm's fourth season.

Author Bio For Bianca Farrah:

Originally from Eugene, Oregon, Bianca is currently incarcerated in a Virgina Prison Facility for Women.

Bianca's twitter handle is @InmateFarrah. It is in no way associated with the real Bianca Farrah as she is not allowed to post to Social Media being a convicted felon at the time of this writing. 

Author Bio For Brian Dykeman:

Brian Dykeman (East) is a non-self proported Nuclear Physicist; an honorary title bestowed upon him by Brian Dykeman (West); an indiviual not qualified as such; as of yet, to bestow such a title.

Brian Dykeman (East)'s role in 'Carcerated Grammer' started when the other Brian Dykeman (West) added as many Brian Dykemans as he could find on Facebook and Twitter and he:  Brian Dykeman (East) was the only Brian Dykeman to accept his said request and reaching out. Soon thereafter, Brian Dykeman (West) set out on a five month cross country roadtrip. When Brian Dykeman (East) took note of his venture via the social media, he  asked him [Brian Dykeman (West)] where he was going to be visiting. In Lawrence, KS at the time; home of the infamous Jayhawk, Brian Dykeman (West) informed him Virginia Beach, VA. was one such place of many on the tentative docket. The random, almost fictional; but it wasn't,  friend request would soon turn into a meeting of not just the hearts and minds, but also brothers, as both individuals would discover Brian Dykeman (East) also served in the Marine Corps as a Helicopter Mechanic and Suffix, VA.; where Brian Dykeman (East) resides when he isnt working at the Naval Shipyard nearby as an Electrician, was only several minutes away from Virginia Beach, VA. 

The rest, as they say, is Kismet as an eternal bond was fused once that meeting came to fruition, over many stout beers; one that happend to taste just like chocolate covered rasberries, as it would turn out.

This is Brian Dykeman (East)'s first venture into publishing material in for the public masses. 

Brian Dykeman (East) is not responsible for the shenanigans of the dinkis that is Brian Dykeman (West).
