Davey
Beauchamp is an author who has no idea what he is doing at any
given moment, as he is being pulled in numerous directions at
once. He graduated college with a B.A. in English with
emphasis in Creative and Professional writing.
In college, he learned he could write and do so
effectively stirring emotions in his readers. Though while
there, he learned nothing about the industry, especially in
regards of getting published.
In the end, he was self taught.
Davey has made mistakes along the way but has learned a
great deal by breaking the rules and being himself, which puts
him apart from other writers. Allthough, he wouldn’t
recommend his approach to everyone, because it has helped him
as much as hurt him.
After
college, he did write a book and had it published; however, he
considers his college horror film because it was that bad.
Then he published the first book in his Agency 32 series Agency
32: The Chelten Affair. It was during this time when he
got his nick name ‘Con Artist’ because he was attending
conventions, in the beginning, with nothing more than a cover.
He really enjoyed doing conventions and hanging out with the
attendees and fans because he himself is one at heart. Davey
always strives to make sure they have as good as time as
possible, because without them he wouldn’t be there.
The
next book in the Agency 32 series will be released by a brand
new publisher, who understands the energy and excitement Davey
possesses. On top of this, he has been writing original audio
dramas based on Amazing
Pulp Adventure starring Mister Adventure, a young adult
novel which is being shopped around at this moment. The audios
are being produced by Outcast Media.
His
current project Writers
for Relief: an Anthology to Benefit the Survivors of Katrina,
which he is editing and contributing a story, has allowed him
to work with authors Davey would never have imagined his name
being associated with. These include Larry Niven, Nancy Kress,
Brian Aldiss, Eugie Foster, and numerous others. All proceeds
from the book will be going to the American Red Cross to help
the survivors of Katrina.
Just
recently. Davey was tapped to write various horror screen
plays for both film and TV.
When
he isn’t writing or attending conventions promoting his
books and just having an amazingly fun time, he works as a
mild mannered librarian, in
Wilmington
NC
.
