edit data

Born in rural Michigan in 1990, J. A. Gillette fell in love with reading and writing from the moment they could spell their own name. They graduated with a Bachelor’s in English from Alma College in 2013, and six years later moved to Jersey City where they received the inspiration that eventually produced this novel. They’re an avid gamer and sci-fi nerd, and a proud member of the queer and neurodiverse communities. Legacy.exe is their debut novel.
