J.D. Woodson was born in Chicago, Illinois and is a graduate of Columbia College Chicago. He served as a ghostwriter for literature, autobiographies, and film for several years, and is the author of A SPACE BETWEEN WORLDS: CONCEPTION. Influenced by the loss of his brother at an early age, Woodson writes with the intention of healing.
He counts the poetry of Langston Hughes and Gwendolyn Brooks as major influences, as well as the magical prose of Lidia Yuknavitch, Haruki Murakami and Han Kang. When he isn’t writing, you can find him relaxing at teashops, studying psychology and philosophy, and spending time with his adorable niece, Londyn.
