Josh lives in the San Francisco Bay Area (which is a catch-all meaning that he doesn't live in any of the cool Bay Area cities), and studied at Westmont College in Santa Barbara (though his degree is not in English).
Josh is a husband (rapturously happy), father (blissfully proud), and teacher (public high school - I know, ouch).
Josh enjoys reading (primarily fiction), writing (obviously), video games (especially shooters and platformers), art (creation and appreciation), film (just appreciation), and travel (9 out of 10 times this means Disneyland).
On his writing, Josh writes literary fiction that doesn't take itself too seriously.
