edit data

Jay writes in various genres but produces mostly science fiction and fantasy.

This is no doubt a result of growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning cartoons, comic books, Star Wars, Star Trek, Michael Crichton and other miscellaneous fiction. He also has a degree in computer science which has added a rational foundation to the house of his imagination.

When he’s not living on a giant rock jutting out of the North Atlantic (otherwise known as the Newfoundland part of the Canadian province of Newfoundland & Labrador) Jay loves to travel and has spent extended periods in New Zealand, Southeast Asia and Italy.
