Coming in July!

Picture
A Grunt's Second Grimoire.

Never whistle backstage.
Never wish someone good luck.
And no matter what you do, never, ever say the Scottish Man's Name.

Travis and the rest of Renfields Anonymous answer a friend's call for help:
The Pencil Factory Theater has a new show coming, and it's haunted by an angry ghost with a thirst for blood.
They'll face long-kept secrets, magical politics, and their own pasts in a place where nobody is who they seem to be.
Can they keep the cast, crew, and themselves alive long enough to exorcise the ghost?
Or will the curtain fall on them?

Available wherever you get your books starting July 1st!

Greetings...

Hi, I'm Jay.

If you've wandered over here, you probably either saw me in a movie or read something I wrote. Either way, welcome aboard.

Acting and writing is pretty much what I do these days. I'm 6'7", with the build of a dumpster and hands that can palm a basketball. I have resting war face, and when I do smile, there's a certain "have them bathed and brought to my tent" quality about it. Movie people call it "presence."

I've done other stuff too, most of them either artsy or violent, occasionally both. I've been a Renaissance Festival performer, a bouncer, a chess coach, a firearms instructor, a fight choreographer, a leatherworker, and a props designer. I'm also a USMC veteran, with combat tours as a machine gunner in Iraq and Afghanistan under my belt.

Wanna see me on streaming?

The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is currently available on Max and Netflix.

And from back in the days of background work...
Blink and you'll miss me as Gerard Argent's backup in Season 2, Episode 4 of Teen Wolf, currently on Hulu.

Look for the only prisoner who looks like he did more than computer fraud on The Fighting Temptations, currently on PlutoTv.

I'm represented by Alan Artists.
And what do you know, I'm even SAG-AFTRA. What a world we live in.
