We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Brandon M. Hatten is an adventurer, entrepreneur, investor, amateur historian, fitness enthusiast, loving husband, girl-dad, and a longtime storyteller. He began his writing journey in the 3rd Grade whenever he rewrote the stories from his Literature book in the ways that he believed they should be told. He eventually typed his first stories at the age of 13 and, thanks to support from friends & family, has not stopped since.

Coming from a relatively-small town in Southern Indiana and traveling most of his adult life, Brandon models many of his story ideas around what he has personally experienced. Carrying an interest for almost every genre and the tragic desire to learn everything, he often spends more hours researching and reading than actually writing.

Brandon has a degree in Business Administration and studied Economics in Europe. He joined the Army National Guard during high school and draws much of his inspiration from the people he serves with. He has an extremely diverse background that motivates him to want to write stories on all subjects from science fiction to historical drama and everything in between.

Currently, Brandon is actively working on half-a-dozen novels with more than three-hundred ideas in various stages of development.

Just let me write books and listen to jazz music!
