It’s been a great pleasure working with and getting to know J. J. Ace, an upcoming published novelist and soon to be discovered screenwriter. And you can just imagine what happens when you get two writers together at lunch or afternoon walk. We talk shop-- he tells me the projects he's working on and I tell him mine. To an outsider, it would be as thrilling as listening to moss grow.
Nontheless, if I’m the first one to write about J.J. Ace on the blog-o-sphere, then I’ll at least be famous for something in my life.
J. J. is a technical writer "with more years of experience than [he] cares to contemplate." And when he is not writing his Toy-Story-like screenplay (which is ingenious by the way) or writing for television or his second novel, he enjoys playing Gamecube with his daughter, putter around in the kitchen, and read.
As I mentioned above, J. J.'s first science fiction/fantasy novel Judgement Day is being published in hardcover this September by TechnoBooks. He's allowed me to include a summary of his book. It's a privilege to introduce you to J.J. Ace. Enjoy.
For Elias, being murdered is just the beginning. Heaven and Hell want his help . . . whether he’s willing to give it or not.
The unlucky "winner" of a celestial lottery after his death, Elias has the role of Forerunner thrust upon him. He’s given the powers of angels and devils in order to cast the thousand-year judgment of what forces rule the world. He must chose Heaven, Hell, or a twisted sort of self-rule for Humankind. But that’s the easy part of the job.
Elias quickly discovers that powerful, ancient forces would sooner the judgment never be made. And the only way to stop the judgment is to erase the Forerunner from existence.
It’s one year until Judgment Day, and Elias may not make it past the first day on the job.
