J. E. Hunt

J. E. Hunt has a degree in English from The University of Georgia, where he concentrated on Arthurian legend and Medieval literature.

After graduation he moved to Minnesota and took up a career in banking, plotting novels on blank teller receipts between loan applications, and reading Les Misérables ravenously over lunches.

This lead to a stock broker's license and a career managing projects for an online brokerage, a career that entailed endless paperwork with white space perfect for scribbling character sketches and story notes.

In 2002 he left the corporate world to spend two years unemployed, writing his first two novels: The Whispering Walls, and its sequel, The Sea of the Missing.

He currently lives in Northern Virginia.
