Motiv8 Blog Tour, Author Bryan Davis

Author Bryan Davis
A Man Serious about Jesus
and Serious about Fantasy

I first met Bryan Davis at the ICRS conference in Atlanta, 2004. Then, I was a wannabe author and he had just had his 2nd Dragons in Our Midst book published. I remember I told him I thought it was cool that he wrote fantasy in the Christian market and he was quick to point out, "I write contemporary fantasy." At that time, I had no idea what that meant. lol. But I caught a glimpse of how serious Bryan is about the fantasy he writes as a ministry for the Glory of God. It was only a glimpse. But don't let my dramatic intro and the picture above fool you. Bryan is no Grinch. He's quite the opposite. His heart is already three sizes too big.

Since 2004, I've gotten to know Bryan quite a bit better. We've toured together twice and done a number of joint signings, speaking engagements, etc. Some of that time, we've roomed together, navigated some scary terrain together, and drawn swords together. And I must admit I've been SO challenged to be a stronger, more pure Christian just by watching Bryan in action. You see, Bryan's one of the most UN-selfish men I've ever known. Need someone to drive and extra 300-400 miles, Bryan leaps in without a second thought. Need a hand carrying something, Bryan is there. Need someone to talk to, Bryan will listen. He's the kind of guy who will dive in front of a bus to be the one who gives you the shirt off his back.


But he is serious. He is so serious about serving God and doing his level best to maintain holiness that he inspires others around him to do the same. Through his books and through his thriving forum, he encourages young people to be real life heroes. There are untold thousands of youths doing the right thing and serving God because Bryan Davis stood in a gap and told them, with God's power, they could indeed do the right thing.


Bryan Davis is also an extremely funny guy. You should hear him do a Stallone impersonation. He gave me a copy of his book, Spit and Polish for Husbands. It's all about being a better husband, but Bryan wrote it in such a way that you're laughing all the way through. Thing is, when the laughs fade, you're sitting there thinking about all the wisdom you've gained and convicted that you can indeed be a better husband.

Bryan Davis is the Author of three book series:

Movie News, Meet the Author #2, and More!

Back from the Ocean. Thanks for all the encouragement on the writing. I did manage to sneak away to write a little: 3,000 words or so! Woo Hoo! A very creepy chapter--you are SO going to love to hate the principal villain in this series. And it looks like I may not be without a deadline for long. My publisher is looking very interested in the new series. More on that when I can be more official.

In other news: This just in. The talent spotter in Hollywood LOVES The Door Within books. As a matter of fact, his daughter took them from him and wouldn't give them back until she blew through the trilogy. Cool, eh? I suspect that if it were solely up to this man that The Door Within would become a movie. However, it's not totally up to him. He does know some pretty influential folks though and he's going to go to them and see what they think. The key questions are: will Hollywood want another fantasy series? And will Fantasy STILL be hot when a Door Within movie could conceivably be made and released some years from now?

PRAY! {please, pretty please!}


And, shoot on over to the Motiv8 Fantasy Fiction Tour Website to meet Author #2 in our series of 8: Sir Bryan Davis. He's not actually a knight that I know of. But he should be. You'll never meet a more "stand up" guy. Go meet him.
