JG Backus

J.G. Backus, a lifelong resident of the Pacific Northwest, has always been a storyteller, captivated by the magic of imagined worlds. He spent countless hours lost in the pages of fantasy novels, inspired by the swashbuckling heroes of Edgar Rice Burroughs, the haunting beauty of Ray Bradbury’s landscapes, and the chilling suspense of Stephen King’s tales. Early experiences with role-playing games like

Dungeons & Dragons further ignited his passion, fostering a unique blend of adventure, wonder, and a touch of the uncanny that he now brings to his own writing. Backus has always wanted to share his fantastic creations in the form of a book, and the realization that his homebrew D&D campaign held the seeds of a novel ignited a new chapter in his creative life. Now, he’s eager to invite readers to embark on epic quests and encounter unforgettable characters, crafting stories within the realms of Science Fiction & Fantasy that blend adventure, wonder, and a touch of the uncanny.
