Rae Bryant is a recipient of the Whidbey Writers’ Prize and editor nominated for StorySouth’s Million Writers Award. Her short stories appear and are soon forthcoming in over twenty journals, both online and print. She is an M.A. in Writing (Fiction) candidate at Johns Hopkins University and the editor of Moon Milk Review.  See Rae’s selected publication list: fiction and nonfiction.

An antiquarian with a particular love for literary, magical realist and surrealist fiction, Rae combines these interests in her writing and reading. She particular enjoys the surreal mundane.

Before writing full time, Rae graduated with a bachelors in Humanities/English Language and Literature then taught high school for over fifteen years. She also worked as a shoe salesman, film caterer, youth counselor and Catwoman for a promotional Batmobile, the original, tour. Her biggest Warhol moment is three—count them 1, 2, 3—seconds of headshot time in the SF film, Wing Commander.

Now, as a mother, writer and M.A. student, she aspires to write a short story about a protagonist who actually finds the missing sock somewhere between the playroom, the dryer and the rabbit hole beneath the oven that leads her to the witty room inside her brain.

Rae lives outside Washington D.C. with her husband, two children, three cats, a dog and a grumpy hermit crab named Nietchze.
