He holds a bachelor’s of science degree in Natural Resources Management from North Dakota State University and a master’s degree from Virginia Tech in Natural Resources Management. J.W. has always been drawn to fantasy, dystopian, and post-apocalyptic worlds. His debut full-length novel is The Prophet of Dust, a story about broken people choosing to help rather than harm.
