Hi, I'm Jason.

I've written a few books, such as Awake in the World and Eleanor. I also write a newsletter, Letters from Hill House, about life and work. I live with my family on a hill in Scappoose, Oregon, where I work as head of design for an AI startup by day and write fiction by night. Now and then I design book covers, too. I'm a compulsive doodler, a semi-competent drummer, a pencil collector, a former picky eater turned food adventurer, and a fan of nice long walks. More about me.

What's new

• For the first time in years, I'm opening my books for new book cover design projects! Check out my portfolio, browse premade book covers for sale, or request an estimate for your project.
• The Edge of Sleep, an adaptation of the hit horror podcast, is now available from St. Martin's Press!

What I'm working on

Presently I'm working on The Dark Age, a novel adaptation and expansion of a short story I wrote several years ago. As the book develops, I'm sharing my experiences writing it in my newsletter.
