T. W. Bright

I’m T.W. Bright, author of Bright and the Bully. When I was a child, if anyone would have told me I was going to be a writer, I would have laughed at them. I grew up in a small Michigan town, without many positive role models, let alone any interest in English class.

Throughout my adult life, that all changed though and I’ve done my best to be the positive role model for children that I have influence over. Currently, I hold the Vice President position of the State Youth Committee for my church and work with the local children’s transportation company.

Additionally, I’ve searched and found no other books that approached being a superhero in this manner and I wanted to change that. I want young children to learn that they can be a superhero without violence, and be a positive force in their community.

Being a writer has been an unbelievable joy to me and one that I feel the Lord has called me to do. Bright and the Bully is based on Matthew 5:14, “You are the light of the world.”

If you look closely at the symbol on Bright's chest you'll see it's a light bulb. If you look even closer you'll see it's a person too. There is a head in the center and the arms are raised high connecting at the top to form the bulb.

My prayer is that people with influence will explain this to the children in their lives, the goal is that every child will know that they to can be a light to this world.
