A little about myself and about my work as an author:
I’m originally from Sac Town, California. But I like to call the City of Fallen Angels, a.k.a. Los Angeles, my home.
I am an avid gamer, voracious reader, professional singer and songwriter, movie buff and philosopher.
I love to ride my motorcycle any chance I get.
I’m of mixed descent, and as you can tell by my icon, I used to have crazy hair.
You can find evidence of this throughout the inter-webs.
I’m an 8th degree black belt and I hold a black belt in 8 individual arts.

DNA is my first published work, though it is the second complete novel that I have written.

DNA is my first published work, though it is the second complete novel that I have written.
I started my career as a writer creating screenplays. My first script was a horror story. It was so much fun that I had to try my hand at other genres. I played with a romantic comedy, and a drama or two. But it wasn’t until I had created a futuristic Sci-Fi trilogy that I felt that things had truly gelled together and my path as a writer was determined.
I fell in love with a character from my futuristic Sci-Fi screenplay, she was such a great character with such an awesome backstory that I felt I had to properly pay homage to her by creating a prequel series of books based on her origin story.
You see, one of my goals as a writer is to create works that are all connected to each other in some way. Everything I write is a part of the same universe. It may be a future time, or past. Or, as in the case of DNA, a not so distant present time.

While in the process of fleshing out the universe I was creating for my prequel Mercenary series, I hit upon a concept that I felt needed its own series.
And so I arrived at what is now DNA. You could say it’s a sort of prequel to a prequel.
You see, I don’t experience “Writer’s Block” per say. I instead run into something I like to call, Divergent Paths. I don’t find myself hitting a wall which stops me, what happens to me is that I come upon a fork in the road, sometimes multiple, and I can’t stop myself from traveling down each and every path in order to see where it leads.

And there you have it, a little about me and about my writing.
I hope you enjoy the book even half as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Ciao for now,

Neo Jade
