Joshua Rutherford is a novelist and screenwriter, best known for his epic fantasy book, Kinghood. As an avid fan of literature and film, Joshua has spent the past fifteen years crafting compelling screenplays and stories. 

Joshua's foray as a scribe first began after he graduated from University of California, Santa Cruz with a degree in Film & Digital Media. First, he focused on screenwriting, honing his abilities at creating dialogues, description, and acts. From there, he turned to short stories and novels. He is the author of ten scripts, two TV pilots, and currently has five titles listed on Amazon, in addition to his regular social media posts and blog articles.

After publishing Kinghood, Joshua has outlined the entire series to follow Book One of The Fourpointe Chronicles. The rest of the series - to comprise another five books - will follow the lead characters through a tide of war, assassinations, odysseys, and romances.

Joshua brings a unique experience in writing for both the screen and paperback. He has an ear for dialogue, one he has honed in more than five years in Toastmasters, where he not only gave prepared speeches but evaluated other speakers in their craft. Additionally, as a student of history, he regularly researches European, Middle Eastern, and other cultures pertaining to background material he implements into his stories.
