W. J. Long III is a resident of rural North Carolina, living with his wife and two children.
Writing has always been a close-held passion of his, but after a life-threatening health crisis, W J turned his eye toward leaving something of note behind.
As a long-time geek culture fan (especially science fiction), W J comes to his novels from a cinematic background. Having written several screenplays, he now brings the same sense of energy, tension, and pace to his work in prose.
