About the author

Jesse Lynn Rucilez

<p>Hello. My name is Jesse Lynn Rucilez, and I&#39;m a writer from Reno, Nevada. When I&#39;m not working, my life revolves around literature, film, and music. Hopefully, one day my passions will be the core of my existence, rather than mere recreation.<br /> <br /> People often ask me what I write. Unfortunately, my fiction doesn&#39;t fit into any specific genre. Thus far, I&#39;ve written about everything from giant evil teddy bears, suicidal junkies, porn stars, and witchcraft, to living alien technology; all with a character driven, literary bent. From here on I plan to write futuristic thrillers, dystopian satire, space opera, fantasy, and superhero novels. I like to blend genres, so everything will have a touch of humor, romance, and action.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> Whatever it takes to tell the best story I can.<br /> <br /> Be warned, however, that my writing is ferocious. I won&#39;t ever massage your brain. My intent is always to grab you by the throat and not let go until you&#39;ve read the last line. I want to make you laugh. Make you cry. Make you love. Make you hate. Make you envy. Make you pity. Make you angry. Make you morose. I want to entertain, of course, but, most of all, I want to make you think.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> That&#39;s the power of good writing.<br /> <br /> And if you choose to read my stories, I&#39;ll be eternally grateful...but I will ask one favor: Please pay attention. Don&#39;t just let your eyes skim over the words; be attentive to context and subtext, to character and motivation, theme and style. Delve deep into my world and meet me halfway, and in return I&#39;ll promise you this:&nbsp;<br /> <br /> Whether you like my writing or not, I&#39;ll never bore you.<br /> <br /> Thanks for reading.<br /> <br /> JLR</p>
