I am J. Raymond Davis, just a guy with a dream
and a hope that you enjoy what I'm doing. I write, therefore I am. I speak my works to bring you into the worlds that I create.....just for a little while, and only if you dare.

Born in California, to young parents, I often found myself lost in my imagination. Raised with musical storyteller greats like John Prine, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, and many more playing in the background I found my passion in their words. I owe many thanks to my mom, Linda and my dad, Mike, who passed away before his time. I am the man I am today because of them.

I drive forklift during the day, and wear my writer's hat on my lunch breaks, sitting at stoplights, and any spare moment I have. I am a family man, married to the love of my life. Our hearts will forever be intertwined through our three sons, they are the reason I wake up in the morning and put pen to paper. It is just that simple. If I could I would spend my days fishing in the mountains, and writing of my adventures, with my family by my side.

That's me...
