At the age of eight, Burn Moor got a hold of his grandfather’s antique typewriter, inserted a piece of paper, and punched the keys to a detective story. This would serve as the beginning of a lifelong passion for literature.
Influenced by some of the greatest authors to ever bleed ink into paper -- Charles Dickens, Franz Kafka, Arthur Machen, Edgar Allan Poe, Thomas Ligotti, and Haruki Murakami, as well as a heavy dose of Rod Serling’s, The Twilight Zone -- Burn Moor tosses his readers into dark worlds of the nihilistic, the surreal, and the psychologically twisted.
Burn grew up in NYC, immersed in a culturally and religiously diverse environment, which shaped his innate ability to push the envelope of literature, while constantly challenging our beliefs though his surreal worlds. Burn’s hobbies throughout his life also shaped much of his persona. Dealing with depression from a young age, Burn delved in high-risk activities, such as skydiving, snowboarding, motorcycle racing, and mixed martial arts as a way of combatting the darkness within, constantly seeking to challenge death, which is a ubiquitous theme in his writing.
After spending several unfulfilling years in the corporate environment (a theme that is also prevalent in his work) Burn and his wife transitioned to entrepreneurship, which afforded him the time to pursue his true passions, and eventually accomplish the lifelong ambition of publishing his work.
Burn still trains as a fighter and powerlifter, and has recently pursued a passion for music as the lead singer and lyricist of a blues metal band -- Pagan Lust. Their debut album is schedule to release October 2021.
Burn Moor’s debut fiction novel is entitled The Brain Drips Yellow and he has just completed his second novel, Beyond the Veil, The Road Leadeth.
