Novelist, playwright and screenwriter Jason Price grew up in the suburbs of Houston. His plays have been performed at Houston's Tony Award-winning Alley Theatre and Stages Theatre. Price's 2010 debut novel, Republican Punk - the gonzo travelogue of an ordinary man running for President of the United States - was hailed as "timely," "relevant" and a "minor classic." Price's second novel, Pleasant Grove, is a departure from his previous work. A sci-fi horror adventure about a group of kids escaping a lockdown of their small town, Pleasant Grove has been called "one of the best middle-grade sci-fi books."

Price lives in Houston with his wife and two daughters.

“This is when family and friends must stand tall and strong—when mettle is tested, refined and purified. We’ll survive. We must. And we’ll watch the enemy burn in the fire.”
Jason Price, Republican Punk

“Are they sad tears? Like when you lose something?” “I think so, maybe. But I’m also happy. Like when you gain something you didn’t know you had.”
Jason Price, Pleasant Grove

“an uneven beige.”
Jason Price, Pleasant Grove

“But the Hebrew word, the word timshel—‘Thou mayest’— that gives a choice. It might be the most important word in the world. That says the way is open. That throws it right back on a man. For if ‘Thou mayest’—it is also true that ‘Thou mayest not.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

“There are two occasions when the sacred beauty of Creation becomes dazzlingly apparent, and they occur together. One is when we feel our mortal insufficiency to the world, and the other is when we feel the world's mortal insufficiency to us.”
Marilynne Robinson, Gilead

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Ronald Reagan
