J.D. Gregory was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio. He has been an avid reader and lover of all things fantasy, mythology, and epic adventure since he was a small child. His desire to be a globe-trotting archaeologist like Indiana Jones led him to various parts of the world to study the cultures and remains of ancient civilizations. It also led him to discover his fellow scholar, co-adventurer, and love his life, Jennifer. His other dream was to write novels, and in the wake of piling student loan debt, decided to make that dream his top priority.
J.D. and Jennifer have returned to their home state of Ohio and are currently awaiting their next great adventure—the birth of their first child.

I have been searching for a copy of The Jane Austen Code for a year now. Will it be re released or available on kindle any time soon?
J.D. Gregory Maria, sorry it took me so long to respond. Something glitched and I didn't see your question until just now.

I greatly appreciate your interest! My h…moreMaria, sorry it took me so long to respond. Something glitched and I didn't see your question until just now.

I greatly appreciate your interest! My hope is for The Jane Austen Code to be re-released by the end of the summer, but it will definitely be by the end of the year at the very latest. It would have been much much sooner but things don't always go the way you plan. Such is life.

I sincerely apologize for the delay, on both accounts.

Udana & Endymion

“Who are you, my lady?” the Shepherd asked the beautiful maiden.


“I am Udana of the Moon,” she declared. “For whom your song of love was written.

You have saved me, as I once saved you.

Know that I love you and my heart sings with yours.”


—Song of Udana 6:2-3



There is not one child among the Naphalei who does not know the tragic tale of Udana, Keeper of the Moon, and Endymion, the Prince of Shepherds.
