J.D. Peabody has always loved stories, and his career has been spent improving his ability to write and tell them. For nearly two decades, he wrote in the context of advertising and public relations agencies, where he gained an appreciation (or at least a tolerance) for being edited. He then switched fields entirely, attending seminary, helping start a new church and learning the discipline of writing for weekly sermon deadlines. Along the way, he tried his hand at writing poetry and song lyrics, which met with some success and taught him the difference between connecting emotionally and just being clever with words. He published articles that required attention to word count. He also wrote multiple screenplays that honed his sense of dialog and plot development. After years of writing and rewriting, his first two books are both arriving on shelves within months of each other in 2022, one for grown-ups and one for young readers (or at least the young at heart). A friend once told him, "Keep your head down and keep chopping wood." He hopes to keep chopping away at more books. J.D. is a native of the Pacific Northwest, where he lives with his wife, who offsets the perpetually cloudy skies.
