edit data

J.L. Norman has worked as a copywriter, content designer, web designer, and dabbled in illustration. But his true passion is writing science fiction stories. He honed his craft while getting a BA in English at Utah Valley University. He is also a self-professed nerd who loves books, movies, and video games of all varieties.

He wanted to write stories that are mature enough for adults to enjoy, but clean enough that he wouldn't be embarrassed if his kids were to read them. He is currently working on his next story (Burden of Proof), coming out spring of 2015. Learn more at www.jlnorman.com ...more
