I am the author of The Jupiter Pirates series published by HarperCollins -- visit the official site at http://jupiterpirates.com.

In addition to Jupiter Pirates, I've written or co-written more than 30 novels and short stories set in the Star Wars galaxy, including The Essential Atlas, The Essential Guide to Warfare, The Weapon of a Jedi, and the Servants of the Empire quartet.

I spent more than 12 years at The Wall Street Journal Online, where I wrote or co-wrote the Real Time and Daily Fix columns. My non-fiction work has appeared on ESPN.com, Yahoo! Sports, Poynter.org, Deadspin and Baseball Prospectus. I blog about the New York Mets at Faith and Fear in Flushing and live in Brooklyn with my wife and son.

It starts with imagination and inspiration, but I think invocations of those things do more harm to writers than good. Better advice: Be your own muse. If you're just starting out, you're going to need thousands of hours to get anywhere close to mastering your craft. If you're established, you've got to get on to the next project. So put your butt in your chair or your feet in front of your standing desk and get to it.(less)

I’m Moving!

This Tumblr will no longer be maintained – BUT it’s been recreated as a Substack, also called Jason Fry’s Dorkery.

I don’t have any plans for subscriptions etc. right now, but I’m hoping the change of scenery will inspire more frequent posting about my various geeky endeavors.

Anyway, I’m now at https://jasonfry.substack.com/. I’d be honored if you joined me over there, and thanks so much for readin

Oh what fun. Like a Mark Twain yarn that got misplaced back in the day but has now been found, for the enjoyment of all. Highly recommended.

Quotes by Jason Fry  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Snoke's escape shuttle is gone," the general replied.
Kylo considered that. Rey had recovered first. She must have realized he was at her mercy, yet she'd left him alive.
Almost as if she cared for him.”
Jason Fry, The Last Jedi: Expanded Edition (Exclusive Edition)

“Ben Solo had sought to abandon everything he had been, even casting aside his name. But Luke sensed that Kylo Ren was just a shell around the same broken boy he had tried so hard to reach.”
Jason Fry, The Last Jedi: Expanded Edition (Star Wars)

“Failure most of all. The greatest teacher failure is.”
Jason Fry, The Last Jedi: Expanded Edition (Star Wars)
