THE ARCHITECT
S.W. Bell works a full-time job and writes in his spear time. He started in his fifties with a list of stories he'd carried for years and a decision to finish them.
His books move across genres. When the Heart Catches Fire follows a group of teenagers through 1993 Glendale, Arizona. The Second Ten Days puts a fifty-year-old ad man in a race against his own death. Born This Way drops a dhampir, a succubus, a werewolf, and a Haitian bokor into a summer camp with a secret. 3130 Steam Wolf takes to the skies on a zeppelin over a world rebuilt on steam. Reckoning of Brass and Blood follows a hunter who was underestimated on the most important day of his life.
He writes werewolves that silver can't touch, vampires that walk in daylight, and heroes who look like the people he grew up with. His characters fall in love, get into trouble, and don't always get out clean.
He has been married to his wife for 32 years. They have two children and two grandchildren. He writes so they'll have something of his to read.
Based in the heart of the American Southwest, S.W. Bell blends gritty realism with high-stakes fantasy. His work explores the intersection of time, technology, and the enduring power of human connection. Currently working on a multi-verse epic that spans the digital frontier and the physical world.
