Andre "Dre" Blanco

Andre Blanco (Dre) is a second-generation Conch, born in Key West, Florida, and graduated from Key West High School in 2003. From 2003 to 2007, he served in the United States Army and is a decorated combat war veteran.

After returning home, he left again for Orlando, where he completed a degree in Computer Programming and Analysis in 2013 and a degree in General Academics in 2014.

Before long he was home again, this time working for the U.S. Navy as an IT specialist.

Writing is a hobby he picked up more than three years ago with a focus on folkloric narrative verse—rhymed prose spoken like ancient tales. His first book is the self-published The Ballad Dark: A Tragic Comedy, written under the pseudonym Voidance. The second book of the saga, The Ballad Grim: A Reluctant Sequel, is scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2027.
