Bill Alive

Hi! Do you love mysteries that make you laugh?

I’m Bill Alive, and I write your kind of story. Smart detectives and zany characters in mysterious small towns that you just might grow to love.

But I write in other genres too, including comedy, science fiction, fantasy, love stories, even kids’ books! Take a look…

P.S. I previously also wrote as “B.T. Alive”, but I’m switching everything to just the one name of “Bill Alive”. Life is short.
