Paperback, ebook, and audiobook editions are available on Amazon.

Jon's long-story collection, Family Happiness—so elusive, so ideal—was published by Big Table in 2016. His flash fiction collection, The Roadkill Collection, was published by the same house in 2014. A specially abridged audio edition of The Roadkill Collection is now available on Amazon, iTunes, and Audible.

Jon writes fiction (quite truthful), humor (intentionally, often), and essays (not graded, thankfully). Many of Jon's shorter works may be seen at jonsindell.com.

Jon curates the Rolling Writers reading series in San Francisco. A former lawyer, Jon is now a full-time personal humanities tutor of students from middle school through college. Great fun.
