Colin Holmes
Biography and information about the author
Before the pandemic, I toiled away in a beige cubical as a mid-level marketing and advertising manager for an international electronics firm. A recovering advertising creative director, I spent far too long at ad agencies and freelancing as a hired gun in the war for capitalism.
My ad copywriting covered everything from newspaper classifieds, TV commercials, and radio spots to trade journal articles and tweets. I've sold cowboy boots and cheeseburgers, 72-ounce steaks, and hazardous waste site clean-up services. And encountered fascinating characters at every turn.
Now I write stories - novels, short stories, and screenplays in an effort to stay out of the way and not drive my far too patient wife completely crazy. I am an honors graduate of the UCLA Writers Program, a former board member of the DFW Writers Workshop, and serve on the steering committee of the DFW Writers Conference.
