I write software and SF/F for adults and kids. I wear fun socks, am an unrepentant Cincinnati Bengals fan, and whine about adulting. Sometimes I play Elden Ring or MTG: Arena. My books are published under the name J. R. Andrews (https://jrandrewsbooks.com). Check out my books above or my blog at https://jasonarust.com.

I sent the last part of Fury, the three-part sequel to my first JR Andrews novel, Famine, to the editor last night. Stay tuned for release details coming soon!

I really thought this book might kill me before I finished it. I can't wait to share it with the world!
