About

David Disspain is a genre-bending author and screenwriter based in the Washington, D.C. area, originally from Phoenix, Arizona. His work seamlessly blends science fiction, supernatural suspense, martial‑arts action, and whimsical fairy‑tale adventure.

He has contributed darkly imaginative stories to acclaimed anthologies such as Twist in the Night (Harbinger) and Ignition (“The Unusual Labor of Gus McCray”), and is the creator of the children’s book Mallory Brown at Super Fun Town and the paranormal thriller Here Comes Billy Alive. His latest project is the anthology The Keys: Twisted Tales from Auntie’s Attic.

David’s narrative terrain often explores parallel realities, metaphysical mysteries, and the connections that defy logical boundaries. At his core, he weaves emotional truth into uncanny settings that captivate both genre fans and young readers alike.

A lifelong fan of the Phoenix Suns, David’s personal passions include 1980s music, Wuxia and martial arts cinema, fringe science, astronomy, and general geek culture. He is happily married to his high‑school crush and draws endless inspiration from everyday kindnesses and curious wonders.
