Articles by Jason Alan

Jason Alan was born and raised on Long Island, New York. Growing up in the late seventies and eighties, surrounded by artists, musicians, and like-minded people, his childhood was immersed in what he considers to be the first golden age of imagination in his lifetime. It was a time when the original Star Wars Trilogy ruled the earth, and the dawn of home computing and video games was at hand. The Star Trek movies were flourishing, and Aliens and Indiana Jones, and myriad other science fiction and fantasy franchises. Role playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons provided a wonderful, creative outlet, where his imagination had all the room it needed to grow. Although he didn't realize it at the time, Jason was creating the foundations for his own fantasy universe, honing his writing skills, and forever defeating writer's block on the giant wood table in his parents' kitchen, where endless nights of improvised adventures took place. His first novel, “Phate: The Cosmic Fairytale,” will be published through Oloris Publishing in 2014. He's currently working on the sequel, and the first book of another epic fantasy series called “Mythnomor,” with fellow writer and good friend Jason R. Jones, author of the Exodus Sagas.
