His love and collection of comic books began when he was 10, in a convenience store in Waycross, Georgia. It wasn't long afterward when he started writing his first comic-related stories. This passion has continued throughout his adult life as he remains an avid comic book reader and collector.
In 2002, he was a founding member of Terminus Media. It began as a writer's collective in the back of the Dragon's Horde Comic Book Store in Decatur, GA. Through the next decade, Terminus published anthologies in which John was both an editor and contributor.
In 2010, John took the storytelling skills that he has learned and applied them to the writing of novels and short stories. He has written three novels, The Dark That Follows (2013), the serialized dark fantasy Hollow Empire (2014), and the science fiction The Echo Effect (2020).
On the comic book side, he is the creator/writer of the Gilded Age series from Terminus Media as well as the co-writer of The Crossing from 133art with Robert Jeffrey II.
He writes a weekly blog at www.tesseraguild.com where he talks about writing, movies, comics, and anything else that happens to pop into his head. John currently lives in Suwanee, Georgia with his wife Courtney and three cats: Inigo, Sawyer, and Nox.
He maintains that he would have been a marine biologist if not for the movie Jaws.
