My name is Jason Denzel, and I invite you to check out my adult and YA-friendly epic fantasy saga, THE MYSTIC TRILOGY, which begins with Mystic and continues with two sequels, Mystic Dragon and Mystic Skies.

In addition to writing, I'm also an award-winning filmmaker, and the founder of Dragonmount.com, the leading online community for Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson's Wheel of Time saga.

When I'm not writing or pursuing other creative ventures, I study Choy-Li-Fut Kung Fu. I live in Northern California.

For updates on The Mystic Trilogy and other projects, you can follow me on Instagram (@jasondenzel), Threads, or Blue Sky (@jasondenzel.com) or check out my website at JasonDenzel.com. Thanks for reading! ...more

While drafting your story for the first time, worry less about your "voice" and make sure you tell your story. Be yourself, rather than a second rate version of your favorite author. (less)
