D.J. Brand, the literary maestro hailing from the sun-soaked shores of Perth, Western Australia, has spun quite the yarn in his journey from dreamer to author. Born and bred in Lynwood, he packed his bags for Northam in ‘79, where he traded playground tales for the pen and mastered the magical art of storytelling.

In the kaleidoscope of the 80s, D.J. conjured a wondrous notion: what if one could unlock the vault of their dreams, stepping into a realm where the past, present, and future mingled like old mates? Thus, the saga of a boy who solves mysteries through his dreams began to unfurl—a tapestry masterfully woven from imagination and ambition. Originally envisioned as a screenplay, it sat in the wings, waiting for its time to shine.

D.J.’s flair didn't just stop at dreamy plots; he also graced the stage with his theatrical chops, dazzling audiences with performances for esteemed groups like Patch Theatre and YALDA (Young Australia League Drama Academy). His trophy cabinet is evidence of his talent, boasting numerous Best Actor awards and accolades for Overall Excellence. During the 90s, he was an amateur theatre rock star before delving deeper into the literary world.

Amidst working at a bustling hospital in Perth, he picked up the quill (or, let’s be honest, a keyboard) to pen his first book, originally titled ‘Cave Death’. Released in 2011, its metamorphosis into a new name and cover is like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, ready to entice fresh readers into its quirky world.

But wait, there's more! Between 2005 and 2010, D.J. dabbled in the beats of the night as ‘Cwazy DJ 3000’. Whether spinning tunes at weddings, throwing unforgettable parties, or hosting Murder Mystery Theme Nights, he lived out a symphony of lively tales, crafting experiences that linger like the last notes of a beloved song.

Now, with Book Two ready to hit the shelves at the end of 2025, D.J. Brand continues to dive into the depths of Dream Reality, weaving more enchanting mysteries for his avid readers. Buckle up, because this book series is just getting started, and you’re not going to want to miss a single page!
