In Joe's words
I've been close enough to know how it should feel.
I'm a bestselling author with 20 years in the military behind me, including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. After that I worked more than a year as a contractor for JSOC. Today I work for a small company that still does Department of Defense work with Special Operations. That background is in every book I write. When a character clears a room or makes a call under fire, it has to read the way it happens.
I started the Dark Skies series because I wanted post-apocalyptic stories that felt real: families, hard choices, and consequences that stick. Eight books later, John Kerrigan's story is heading into its finale, and there are more worlds on the way.
I live in Tampa with my fiancée. When I'm not writing, I'm spending time with her, hiking, traveling, or getting some range time in. I'm also a big movie guy, especially post-apocalyptic and horror.
