“I’m kind of a big deal. People know who I am.“
Trey Garrison’s secret identity is working as a mild-mannered journalist, editor, humorist, opinionist, consultant, entrepreneur, and part-time sybarite. Maybe the best word to describe him is racontrepreneur.
Future award-winning author of the soon-to-be published (cross your fingers) The Merchant Princes: A Far Ranger Adventure, an alternative history/steampunk/zombie/Nazi mashup adventure.
Trey’s work has appeared in a number of publications, often with his consent and sometimes with his knowledge. He’s a contributor for D Magazine — considered among the best city magazines in the United States — and for Reason magazine. Trey is a special contributor for The Dallas Morning News and a field reporter for The Land Report. He’s also a regular for a host of other pubs that pay the bills while he dreams of cover bylines in Vanity Fair and The Atlantic. (He’s written a couple of business books, and for the Dallas Business Journal and a slew of other publications.)
As a writer, he’s a better chef. And as a chef, he’s a better shooter. On the whole, he’d rather be on the beach in Jamaica. Wouldn’t you?
