Jason Carter

Biography

~A virtual unknown in the massive world of books, those readers Jason has reached, rave about his ability to give readers page-turning, fast-paced, stories with no filler. And with his ability to create real and identifiable characters, Jason is able to deliver engaging stories with plot twists that will surprise even the most seasoned reader.

Although he was born in Montreal, Canada, Jason grew up in the ethnic and cultural melting pot of southern California. For more than twenty-five years, cities such as Torrance, Redondo Beach, Long Beach, Lakewood, and various parts of Orange County were all places he called home. It’s no wonder that, while he now resides in Tennessee, he still chooses to set his stories within the southern California area.

After spending several years in the music scene, Jason shifted gears, turning his talents from writing music to writing books. His first book, a novella entitled Endless Sacrifice was published in 2005. And while its sales were mild, they were enough for him to press on into the difficult world of writing. After signing with the Pratt Literary Agency, Jason released his debut novel, A FORTUNE IN LIES.

Jason lives in Tennessee with his wife and their son.

Smashwords Interview

What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
My family. I'm a stay-at-home father and husband. Before writing, my first priority is getting both my wife and son ready for the day ahead.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
If I'm not spending my free time with my family, then you'll find me behind an instrument. Guitar, drums, bass whatever. I'm either playing music or listening to it. I was in a band for many years before turning to writing. Music has always driven my soul, and I listen to it every second I can. I can go from The Deftones to Bohren & Der Club of Gore to Periphery to Classical all in a row while I'm writing. It's amazing how a just a single song can inspire a chapter or even an entire book.
