Born just south of London, England, Kevin A. Reynolds has lived in Tokyo for over 30 years, where he writes novels focused on Japan past, present and future.

Both his first novel, ‘Mamoribito - The One Who Protects,’ and his second novel, ‘The Girl Who Fell Through Time,’ started as screenplays, but it is as 小説* that the full tales can be best told.

Although he covers different genres, there is a core theme that lies at the heart of his work, along the lines of “There are more things in heaven and earth….”

He also plays guitar, though not particularly well.

shousetsu = novel, short story

Tom DeGeorge

Tom is a former CIA Officer, retired from the Directorate of Digital Innovation (DDI). That's as deep as he'll go on a resume. Or here.

The DO are the fighter pilots of the CIA: “I was Air Force, but I wasn’t a fighter pilot.”

He lives in an old fishing village in coastal North Carolina: "I sleep late, I fly, I write; I have a big dog and a small house. I'm a decent cook and a lousy gardener. And Tom DeGeorge is my true name. I miss the people, the work, and the atmosphere at CIA. No one I know misses the stress, frustration, and the long line at the OHB Starbucks."
