I’m Byron.
Two books. Two Emmys. One testicle.
I’m an author, playwright, and founder of Byrontology.
It’s a fun, little, satirical cult that believes in YOU.
That you can turn despair and creative paralysis into art and momentum.
That’s what I try to do.
That’s the practice.

This is all Carrie Fisher’s fault.
When I was her personal assistant, she’d tell me, “Take your broken heart and go make art.”
I started Byrontology when I felt like a failure.
I wanted to connect with my tribe of creatives, overthinkers, and the existentially exhausted.
To not feel alone.
What it looks like.
The New York Times calls my writing “wildly funny and irreverent.”
I just want it to be meaningful. To you.
