Autorenporträt
Bryan D. Price is a reluctant human who tries his best (writing helps sometimes). His work has been published in Diagram, Posit, The Ucity Review, Rhino Poetry, The Summerset Review, and elsewhere. He lives in San Diego, with his wife, Claire, a dog (who shall remain nameless), and a cat named for Pina Bausch. He has yet to make peace with the weeds.
