The BLUE PERIOD (or; progression of a mad writer) comprises the works produced by American novelist Bryant Golden between 2013 and 2018. During this time, Golden wrote exclusively while severely inebriated and edited his manuscripts sober. These compromised works are his most popular to date.

the award-winning fantasy/other world blue moon chronicles trilogy was in print from 2013 to 2023.

The surreal novel Who-Knows-Where was in print from 2018 to 2023.

Golden’s blue period was followed by his rose period.
