Brian Douglas grew up in Alberta, Canada, and has lived, at least for a short while, in each of the prairie provinces prior to making British Columbia his home in 2017. He began working as a short-order cook in the seventh grade and has really never stopped working. While his careers have changed, from dishwasher to therapist to lighting designer to hospital crisis counselor, for as long as he can remember, writing has always been Brian’s greatest passion. He has three grown children, four grandchildren, and a deep respect for the broken human condition. Brian holds a master’s degree with a double major in clinical counseling and pastoral leadership. They Flutter Behind You is his first novel.
