Release Blitz
Jag
by

~ Synopsis ~
"My name's Jag Steele. I’m the lead singer and
guitarist to the band Pandemic Sorrow and I have a drug problem – well, I mean
it's not really a problem unless you
count the fact that I almost made my heart explode from all the blow I shoved
up my nose a few weeks back."
That was my introduction during my first stint in
rehab. I'm a fuckup. If you ask anybody who I am there’s a list they will go
down: Famous, rock star, legend, drug addict, womanizing man-whore… but if you
asked me, I wouldn't have the first idea of what to say because I don’t know
who Jag Steele is. Really, I’m living every other damn person's dream, and all
I want is reality.
Roxy Slade, that girl was my reality. My brutally
flawed and beautifully broken reality. And she fucking hated everything I stood
for. To her I was just one of “those guys”, and she’d rather be buried alive
with poisonous snakes than give someone like me a piece of toilet paper to wipe
their ass with. Brutal - Life. Is. Brutal. And it is just a giant pain in the
ass, which is why I chase after anything to make it numb, anything that can
fill this void. I just want anything that can make me not feel.

~ About the Author ~
Writing is like therapy.
There is nothing else that I can lose myself in the way I can a book - the way
a well written story can take you away from reality and leave you in a dazed
state once you've finished... that is unbelievable. I can only hope that
whoever reads my work will be sucked into the little world I've created on the
pages.Aside from writing, I love sloths and mythology. I kind of have a thing for vampires, because let's face it, something about the fact that they have to fight the urge to bite your neck and drain the life from you is rather sexy. I have an irrational fear of the zombie apocalypse. I honestly cannot imagine a more horrifying way to go than by being ripped to shreds by a mass of mumbling, decaying, and oozing corpses with clicking teeth. Ugh! I just shuddered typing it.
Now the boring basics: I grew up in the south listening to a ton of grunge rock (I'm sure if you read my books you'll be able to guess who my favorite bands are). I wanted to major in theatre and creative writing but my parents refused to let me. They told me those weren't "reliable professions". Reliable? I'd just rather do something I enjoy!
When I hit 30 I decided to start a bucket list and publishing a book was on the top (followed shortly by meeting a certain celebrity). Proud to report I've accomplished both.
I hope if
you read my work that you will enjoy it. After all, writing is the most amazing
magic trick of all... it puts the reader in the mind of the writer (kind of
creepy if you think about it). I hope you love my little world as much as I do.
