STATION IDENTIFICATION 2014

It’s a new year and that means it’s time to remind everyone reading this who I am and what it is that I do. So, let’s just get right to it, shall we?

My name is Josh Reynolds and I’m a freelance author, which is to say that I make things up for a living. I have been a professional author since 2007, and I have written and sold a number of novels in that time, some relating to media tie-in franchises, including Gold Eagle’s Executioner line and Games Workshop’s Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40,000 lines.  I have also written and sold a number of shorter fiction pieces, including short stories and novellas. An up-to-date list of my published work can be found on this site.

I have written in multiple genres, including science-fiction, fantasy and mystery, and have even tried my hand at scripts, book reviews and literary essays. In short, if it pays, I’ll write it. I’ll also write it if I think it’ll be fun, or I want to stretch my creative muscles. I indulge in pastiche, parody and homage with indecent frequency, but I have little respect for literary canon or established continuity. I’m a firm supporter of the reoccurring series character, the online serial and the holiday-themed short story. I have self-published more than once, and yielded to the tender blandishments of traditional and small press publishers. I am contrary and contain multitudes, to mangle Walt Whitman.

Should you wish to contact me for whatever reason, I can be reached via a number of social media outlets, including About.me, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Goodreads, and Linkedin. I’m happy to answer any questions you might have about something I’ve written, but unfortunately I cannot read your fan-fiction, unpublished novel or short story. I also cannot give you writing advice, put you in touch with my editor or introduce you to another author.

And that is the story of me. Now back to your regularly scheduled program, already in progress.
