Jon Schafer (One of the top 100 horror authors on amazon.com) is an artist, a writer, and used to design amusement parks, casinos, and family entertainment centers as well as running his own architectural design firm. 
He loves to write and has traveled around the world, so he uses a lot of his life's experience in the background of his books. 
He served in the Marine Corps, and although he would never do it again in a million years, cherishes every minute and memory of that time.
He is a Master Diver and Dive Master through PADI, so to be near some of the best diving in the world he currently resides in St. Petersburg, Florida.
When you buy one of his books, please rate it. He relies on his customers to tell him how they liked his work and doesn't have family and friends flesh out his reviews.
