Born on Moody Air Force Base in Valdosta, Georgia, and raised in rural North Carolina, W J has always searched for his place only to find it among fiction in all its forms.
As a natural-born troublemaker, a few kind teachers took an interest in him and the notebooks he filled instead of paying attention in class. Together, they typed and bound his work. They entered him into the young writer's conference at a local university and from there writing became a lifelong joy.
In the decades since, his life has taken unpredictable turns, eventually bringing him back to that earliest of fantasies. Now, he makes them real, with a newfound determination to share the stories swimming inside his head with the world. As a husband and a father, W J's goal now is to commit his imagination to paper and to leave something behind when the universe decides his time has come.

The Silver Sights Saga
|
Humanity has survived. On the far end of the universe, with Earth little more than a faded memory, they thrive on worlds where once they were enslaved. In the millennia since, these persistent beings built new societies, but when the two greatest nations among them met for the first time, there was war. The all-consuming conflict bent the wills and morals of both powers beyond recognition, leading to levels of experimentation and cruelty once thought impossible. Yet, in a universe drowned in blood, an opportunity for peace is seized.
In the uncertain aftermath of the truce, a broken soldier and a lost psionic girl, both haunted by histories shattered by the war, work tirelessly to make ends meet. In the dusty streets of Minerva City, a shadow from their past returns to offer more than enough credits to break them out of the city's slums.
In exchange, the two must find a powerful secret once capable of bringing solace to a desperate wartorn universe, but in a time of uneasy peace, it holds a more destructive power. Uniquely qualified and entirely in over their heads, the pair put their lives on the line and embark on a harrowing adventure where they discover not only the answers to their broken pasts but a hint of dangers lurking in the Black.
