edit data

K.J. Jones also writes under the pen name Kat-Jo Jones. She is the second generation in her family to have a background in the US Armed Forces/DoD/Pentagon, and she was active in war veteran assistance programs until she developed a chronic illness. An animal and nature lover, she can now only feed wild animals and adopt rescue pets whenever possible.

A member of Mensa, the wise-cracking, metalhead GenX author has an undergraduate degree in four-field anthropology from Wilmington, North Carolina. She achieved her master’s degree in archaeology in the UK.

She combines her life experiences with history, science, and current events in a bold manner that is not typically seen nowadays in the United States.

“My stories are about humans and how they react, or fail to react, or react stupidly. I'm pointing the finger at us, not at the zombies. I try to respect and sympathize with the zombies as much as possible.”

“Zombies cannot run. I say this definitively as the godfather of zombies. Zombies cannot run.
