JC Andrijeski

I'm a USA Today bestselling author who writes sexy, apocalyptic and cyberpunk-y romance, science fiction, paranormal and mystery books, often with a metaphysical bent.
 
While it might seem like I have a (perhaps overly?) friendly relationship with my dark side, if you read my stuff, you'll discover pretty quick that, at base and in my heart, I'm a big, sappy, pie in the sky idealist, and that I always want the light to win, love to win, the good guys to win, compassion to win, the bad guys to be redeemed or at least to find love...even if they have to crawl through mud and blood and crazy sex and betrayal and broken fingernails to get there.
 
Of course, not all of them make it...but I always hope that they will.
 
Other stuff: I have a background in journalism and political history, and a Master's degree in the latter. I love to travel and to interact with different cultures and histories and I've traveled a fair bit (although never enough - there are always new places to see!).  I've also lived a lot of different places, including all over the United States where I was born, as well as stints in Europe, Australia and now Asia, including a few years in India and now a few in Thailand. 
 
I also write nonfiction essays and articles (and some fiction) as Jules Okapi, and children's fiction as Hunter T. Castle.
 
Currently, I live and work full-time as a writer in Bangkok, Thailand, where I have a beautiful view of a Buddhist wat right out the window while I write.
