Who I Am

Hello there!
I'm Bry, and this is where I write. (You can also find me on tumblr [brywrites dot tumblr dot com])

I enjoy writing fics that fill in the gaps- that tell the stories otherwise overlooked in the original piece. I like AU's, backstories and forward-stories, and what-could-have-been-stories.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by my page and read my stories. I hope you have a most wonderful day, and just in case you haven't heard it today: you matter so very much, your story is important, you are loved and needed, you are not alone, and I am so very glad you exist.

All the best,

Bry

Of Genius and Gentility by aMUSEment345 reviews
The last thing Rossi had bought on for, when he'd returned from retirement, was the mentoring of an FBI oddball, a freak of nature, a socially inept, brilliantly gifted, geek. Nerd. Dork. "Nope, not for me. He's somebody else's problem." Until the book project. Set in Season Five.
