R.J. Rogue writes Young Adult Speculative Fiction and is a New York native currently living in San Bernardino, California. He enjoys its gorgeous mountains, scorching heat, and delicious street tacos.
He studied Creative Writing at SUNY Empire State in Rochester, NY in which his early inspirations include a collection of works by Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe, Orson Scott Card, and Gary Paulsen. At the age of 7, R.J. wrote fan-fiction to his parents from his addiction to Debbie Dadey's and Marcia Jones' Bailey School Kids book series. He enjoyed reading and watching R. L. Stine's Goosebumps and continues to find laughter in dark works that typically frighten the strongest at heart.
When R.J. isn't writing, you will likely find him reading The Transall Saga for the thousandth time, breakdancing, practicing his voice impression of Bill Skarsgard's Pennywise, or traveling the country.
