Whether diving into the haunting intrigue of small-town secrets or the mythic trials of a warrior princess bound by prophecy, Jon crafts unforgettable journeys across every genre he touches.
Originally from Oklahoma and now living in Wisconsin, Jon shares his life with his family and two mischievous Dalmatians, who consider themselves the true lords of the household.
