About The Author

R.J. King

R.J. King writes the kind of stories that laugh in the dark. His work drifts between grief and humor, between order and chaos, and sometimes between universes entirely. A two-time Marine Corps veteran, he has spent his life balancing precision and imagination, repairing aircraft one decade and rebuilding fictional worlds the next.

He writes surreal, philosophical fiction about people trying to make sense of the absurd without losing their humanity. His novels, HIGH and DICHOTOMOUS, pull apart the seams between memory, identity, and philosophy: one with smoke, the other with static.
