Author's Bio

Gregory Tarsiscis Janetka was born in Oak Park, Illinois in 1982 and raised in the western suburbs of Chicago. He studied political science at American University in Washington D.C. for three years and finished his degree at North Central College in Naperville, Illinois.

After six years of being a political writer/researcher he gave up the idea of a career in politics to follow his true passion, fiction writing. Since then he has moved all around the country, working various jobs in retail and restaurants and writing whenever he can. He is currently looking for an agent for his debut novel.
