Autorenporträt
J. Gray is an American writer from Massachusetts. His mother was born in Berlin, Germany, where she met his father, an enlisted U.S. Army soldier. In 1987, with a daughter in tow, they left Berlin for Worcester, where Jeremy was born in 1989. Shel Silverstein's "The Missing Piece," R.L. Stein's "Goosebumps," series, and early Stephen King novels introduced Jeremy to the world of storytelling. By six years old he'd wrote, printed, and sold his first story: "Johnny in Space." Hot off the success of selling a whopping six copies, Jeremy had found his passion. At Lesley University, where he earned his English Literature degree, Jeremy discovered Keats, Nabokov, Joyce, Hemingway, Morrison, Milton, and Homer, who all continue to influence his writing today. Themes of memory and transience, the vastness of life, and confronting existential doom have engaged J. Gray throughout his life, and he aims to explore these through nuanced and entertaining prose.
