edit data

Jaz Pate is a US indie author writing dystopian, fantasy/dark fantasy, LitRPG, and beyond. As the mind behind the dystopian series Brass Hearts, Jaz creates stories that push at societal norms, weaving complex characters into thought-provoking worlds. Using his background and education in healthcare, he brings a sharp, thoughtful perspective to his stories while his experience being schizophrenic shapes his unique writing style: blending grit, vulnerability, and surrealist imagination. He brings a deeply personal lens to writing narratives that sometimes hit where it hurts and always lingers long after the final page.
