About the Guest: F.L. Beaty

F.L. Beaty found the love of writing early in childhood. Writing short stories, poems, and even creating a comic book with his twin brother Cedric where he served as a colorist and contributed to the writing of the character dialogue. As an adult he traveled between Georgia and California, settling in California for a while to focus on music writing and creation. He eventually moved back to Georgia to focus again on music, but the writing was something he could not resist. He started back writing short stories and poems. "A Broken Chains'' was his first published work as an independent author. Since then, he hosts "The Author's Alley" radio show powered by TrailBlazerz Radio, his flagship radio station. He released his second book "The Road Less Traveled" and contributes to Aspiring Authors Magazine's Facebook page as an editor. His writing can also be found on his personal blog.
