ⓘ About D.B.C. Pierre

But his dad had not known at the time where this picture would wind up, and it took almost 36 more years for Pierre to even write this novel, or to even realize that he needed to write a novel. In these intervening years he had grown up in Mexico, or at least made an unconvincing attempt at it, had live in six other countries besides, gotten into a bit of trouble and back out of it, had worked as a photographer, a cartoonist, a filmmaker, and a designer. He had been sniped with a gun by his neighbor (but they were friends after that), had almost died in a horrible car wreck, and gotten bit by a vampire bat. And all of it generated this pile of feelings and observations. All of this combustion just had to go somewhere, so it goes into Pierre’s books.
