ABOUT JASON...
I started writing back when I was only eight years old, making up short,
one page stories that involved myself and a girl that held my affections
at the time. Throughout the rest of grade school I continued on with the
really short stories, and it wasn't until the onset of high school, did I
start to get solid ideas for larger works, finding inspiration almost
everywhere.
Throughout the 1990's, my love of science fiction shows and movies helped
me create my own tales in new stories, whether it be fan fiction, or orignial
works. It was at this time that I also laid the groundwork for some of my
series that I write about today, some starting off life as sketches from an
art class. Towards the end of high school, I started a novel as well.
Unfortunately, after fifty pages of writing, I lost the idea. I decided
afterwords to stick to short stories and such, as it became my strength in
writing more and more over the years.
Being someone that was born in our country's biggest city, and grew up in
a smaller community further north (where I once again reside), it gave me an
interesting perspective on a lot of things. I can be comfortable in either the
chaos of a metropolis, or the calm of a remote forest. My writing has really
taken off in the last ten years, with new ideas coming along constantly. I
love to tell a good story, and believe in when C.S. Lewis famously said,
"You can make anything by writing."
As of November 2018, I became a published writer for the first time. My
short story entitled 'Obsession' was published here in Canada, and that
has given me the boost I needed to fully put myself behind my dream now.
I intend to pursue as much of a career in writing as I can, hoping to
write articles for sports outlets and companies alike. That being said, I
write because it's my passion, and also my purpose in life.
Aside from writing, I work in the automotive industry as a Service Advisor
at an auto mechanic shop, a position I enjoy. In my spare time, I enjoy
reading as much as possible, spending time on the beach in the warm months,
and working on my model railroad and various other hobbies. I'd like to think
I'm just a simple man, but we all know that writers and authors are some of
the most complicated people out there, so I'll just stop now....
