JAY ERICKSON grew up in the Midwest before joining the United States Air Force at the age of nineteen. An avid reader since childhood, he holds a deep love for all things fantasy and science fiction, and writing has always been his true passion.
In 2015, he took that passion further, joining the Halsbren Publishing team with the debut of PARIAH, book one of his Blood Wizard Chronicles series.
In 2017, Jay entered the gaming world with the release of THE WILD TIDE, a full adventure module. He has since had additional works published in PATHFINDER ROLE-PLAYING GAMES adventure modules by Paizo Publishing LLC, and SHADOWRUN sourcebooks by Catalyst Game Labs.
As of 2025 his literary works have grown. His most recent full-length novels include stand alone novel, SIRENS OF SOWLE, and HOLLOW OMEN, book 4 of the Wayfarer Prince series. SIRENS OF SOWLE is published by Hydra Publications.
Jay currently resides in Northwest Indiana with his wife, two children, and his old English “bulldogge.”
