Jemir Johnson is a hardened thief. Well, not really. But whenever there’s a free moment to steal he does so to read the fantasy, drama, humor and crime fiction of other talents and create some of his own. A graduate of Iona College with a B.A in English he has written for several crime and science fantasy anthologies. The publications he contributed to include: “Double Danger Tales”, “Legacy: Uprising”, “Foreshadow” and “Foreshadow: Full Speed”. Recently, he finished 5 Shots: a graphic novel collection he authored with five stories (hence the title) focused on the case files of a female private eye named Jay Nova who – off the books – helps desperate people resolve “situations” they can’t, or won’t, go to the law with. With a strong African-American female lead in mind reader Jay Nova- Jemir looks to add dimension and sci fi twists to urban mystery/crime genres.
His great appreciation for comic books and crime fiction is to thank/blame for his pursuit as a writer and graphic novelist 🙂
