Kevin van Whye is a writer born and raised in South Africa, where his love for storytelling started at a young age. At four years old, he quit preschool because his teacher couldn’t tell a story. Kevin’s love affair with stories led him to film school to study script writing. Date Me, Bryson Keller is his first novel. Kevin currently lives in Johannesburg, and when he’s not reading, he’s writing stories that give his characters the happy rom-com endings they deserve. Find him at kevinvanwhye.com and on Instagram.
Born in California and raised in Florida, I’m currently attending Mercer University in Georgia, where I study journalism and creative writing. I’ve found these two seemingly antithetical majors to be wonderfully complementary, and I love that I get to tell stories of all kinds in all sorts of ways.
At Mercer University, I work as the News Editor for our student newspaper, The Cluster. During my time here, I’ve had the chance to intern and complete practicum with outlets including NASA, Georgia Public Broadcasting, The Telegraph, and 13-WMAZ (Macon’s CBS affiliate). I also work on the staff of Mercer’s literary magazine, The Dulcimer, and am a proud scholar of the Stamps Family Charitable Foundation.
