Jason Roer found himself by luck or fate in the prestigious Toy Design program at FIT in New York City, where he decided it was simply better to remain a child and play with stuff. After graduation, Jason found a job with an eccentric businessman designing everything from cartoon characters to filming live events. It was under the auspices of this enigmatic man, that Jason recognized his true calling as a storyteller.Jason has now written and directed four short films, and written a feature screenplay. His latest short, Faceless, played at many festivals around the world, winning awards including Most Disturbing Film at the International Horror and SciFi Film Festival sponsored by Lionsgate Films.The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was Jason's favorite book as far back as he can remember. It was this book that led Jason on most of his early creative exploits, and he can even remember writing a short story inspired by the insane lunacy of the Hichhiker's Guide while staying at his grandmother's apartment many years ago. To this day, that story remains unpublished, and rightly so, however it was this story that made him want to write a story that could in fact be published.Jason has now completed his first novel, The Kringle Khronicles Volume 1: The Legend of Winterdale. He is presently deep in the trenches writing his next novel.All this, and he still has time to break his hand and ribs snowboarding, be a stay-at-home dad to amazing 19-month old, Jaden, and get Sting to play a role in one of his films!
