About Me

So, I write books and stuff. Books that mix lots of information, pop culture references, plausibly hip vernacular, and modern spirituality into a tasty stew of highly readable goodness. After shuffling off from a career as creative director, graphic designer, and advertising copywriter, I'm now writing books for hip Bible readers (Pocket Guide to the Bible). And for twentysomethings (Pocket Guide to Adulthood). And for End-Times obsessives (Pocket Guide to the Apocalypse). I've also written a few other books not involving pockets.I live in Texas with my remarkably supportive wife, Aimee. We have two cool little kids and a couple of pocket-sized dogs.More about me at www.jasonboyett.com
