Biography

WRITERS

 

Jennifer Donohue

Pronounced dead at three, Jennifer has experienced unusual phenomena for over forty years. With a high-functioning, neurodivergent mind, she finds herself more attuned to what lies beyond. Her history of dying car batteries and faulty electronics hints at a unique connection to the other side. Instead of remaining a passive observer of the strange events around her, Jennifer was inspired to join a ghost-investigation team, exploring haunted sites throughout Southern California. She has also trained in mediumship, healing, and Shamanism, balancing these pursuits with her career as a Chief Audit Executive and CPA. An avid creative, Jennifer has written a YA/Magical Realism trilogy about time-altering Fates, which is now ready for publication.

 

 

JD Wallace

JD is a bestselling novelist, award-winning screenwriter, and dynamic educator who brings a wealth of experience from multiple worlds. Currently an Adjunct Professor of English in Seattle, JD specializes in writing, where he shares his expertise honed under the mentorship of legendary figures like Robert McKee, Michael Hauge, and Blake Snyder. His storytelling prowess extends beyond the classroom—he's consulted on a variety of high-profile entertainment projects, including an Emmy®-nominated series and a groundbreaking video game that won 14 awards in its debut year. But JD's talents don't stop at the page or the screen. With a decade of service as a psychological operations officer and deception expert in the intelligence community, he earned a reputation for his leadership on high-stakes missions. After surviving a devastating attack that changed the course of his life and his team’s future, he pivoted to become a successful private contractor, working with international law firms and solving complex operations for some of the world’s most influential clients. A personal tragedy in 2005, the loss of his beloved wife and two girls, profoundly shaped JD’s work and inspired the creation of a character that honors her memory. Today, JD channels his diverse experiences—both triumphs and heartbreaks—into every story he tells, weaving depth, complexity, and heart into every page.
