Jeremy F. Lewis is thrilled to have been dredged from the cess-pool of the unpublished by his agent Shawna McCarthy and Simon & Schuster Pocket Books editor Jennifer Heddle. His first novel, entitled STAKED, is available now.

Jeremy lives in Birmingham, Alabama and is older than is necessary. He decided that he wanted to be a writer when a supposed creative writing teacher questioned his sanity and suggested therapy. The author spent eight wonderful years working in a comic and game shop, until financial considerations required him to become a corporate schmoe. He abides with his patient wife, two adorable sons, and an ornery Akita. An avid reader, J also enjoys sushi, popcorn, lukewarm sodas, and old black and white movies. His two favorite activities are singing lullabies to his kids at bedtime and typing into the wee hours of the morning. Fortunately, like the protagonist of STAKED, the author takes very little sleep.
