I am a video game writer (credits on Game of Thrones; Minecraft: Story Mode; Walking Dead: Michonne), novelist (Falls of Redemption, Allie Strom and the Ring of Solomon), and screenwriter (Adapting Sterling & Stone’s Crash; Santa Exposed).
I have written on how to take your writing from hobby to career in such books as Creative Writing Career and its sequel, and on how veterans can pursue their creative passions in his book Military Veterans in Creative Careers. I studied writing at the Johns Hopkins University MA in writing program and at the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television’s Professional Program in Screenwriting.
I was in the Marines for five years and have lived in Japan, Korea, and Italy. I currently live with my amazing wife and children in the Bay Area.
You may know me from the Self Publishing Answers podcast, Military Veterans in Creative Careers podcast, or the Creative Writing Career podcast. And guess what? I’ve started an author YouTube channel!
ALSO I’ve started a new Author page at www.JustinSloanAuthor.com.

Hi Justin! I just listened to the first ep of the Creative Writing Career podcast and I’m excited to listen to more episodes. I’m an AF veteran working in the federal government now and seeking more opportunities to write creatively, so your podcast seems perfect for me! Video game writing sounds very cool. I look forward to hearing the reality and how one might approach getting into the field.

Sara, that’s great! I’m so happy you enjoyed it (and hope you had the opportunity to leave a review on iTunes) – also, since you’re a vet I’d be happy to share the audiobook of my book MILITARY VETERANS IN CREATIVE CAREERS. We’re launching that podcast on Veterans Day (Nov 11, 2015), and hope it will be complimentary to this one. Stay in touch and let me know if you have any questions.
Justin
