Brian Franklin.

Born and raised in Barbados, Brian has been writing and creating stories for as long as he can remember. He created AntisunGrey.com as a project to showcase a few of his experimental stories, talk about PC games old and new and rant about whatever came to mind.

His novel, Iridium, was shortlisted (Joint 3rd Prize with Glenville Lovell) for the 2012 Frank Collymore Literary Award, Barbados’ premier literary prize for unpublished manuscripts. Past winners include Karen Lord, Glenville Lovell, Esther Phillips, and Kamau Brathwaite. He is currently pursuing publication for it.
