Jay Olsen-Thrift holds many titles: Project Manager, Raid Leader, Business Wizard, and Content Creator.

I have been building worlds and telling stories since I was a child. I write across many mediums: novels, short stories, screenplays, and stage plays. I have a bachelor's degree in software engineering with a minor in professional writing. I earned my master's degree in business administration in May 2024. When I'm not working or writing, I can be found online leading raids in Lord of the Rings Online or tending to my farm in Stardew Valley.

"PREY TO GOD" was a fun monster-horror novel that felt like a movie, and I devoured it in one day. The setup of establishing characters and getting all of the pieces in the right place took a while, but it was worth it once we made it to the desert. ...more
