Hi,

I’m David Edward Barrett. I’m an Irish, and now American, author living in Connecticut with my wife and two children. I am currently querying a contemporary dark speculative novel, one that brings you on a visceral tour through the mind of a depressed demigod as he fights against both the inertia of a broken world and a cosmic threat that could lead to the dissolution of all meaning.

Clearly I am a hit at parties.

Are you a literary agent? I hope you read the pitch for the novel.

I also like to help other budding authors, and provide advice on select manuscripts without cost. You can request a review.

I write on Threads, and sometimes post to other platforms, as @davebarrett, a username chosen when I made the terrible mistake to be more approachable.
