Hi there! I’m John Wilker, a Science Fiction writer.

I currently have three series for you to choose from.

Science fiction and action-adventure stories are in my blood, as kookie as that sounds. As a reader, I can’t get enough and as a writer, I am overflowing with story ideas! I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them.

My work is available wherever ebooks are sold.

I’m also a conference organizer. Bringing people together is a passion of mine. I’ve been organizing conferences since 2007 and well, I’m good at it. Between that and writing, I’m doing what I love every single day.

I’m an active member of the following organizations.

Lift Off! ‘Here, There Be Monsters’ is Live

Today’s the day! If you pre-ordered, your copy magically appeared on your device around midnight! If you haven’t pre-ordered, well, now you can regular order! And You should. I’m really happy with how this one came together. As the Beastie Boys say, “No Sleep, til Brooklyn!” I’m almost done with my loose outline for the […]

Grief

I’ve been thinking a lot about grief the last few days. Winston’s sudden and unexpected passing was a gut punch like none I’ve ever experienced. I’ve been lucky (as such) that my grandparents all passed expectedly. They had health issues, were old. The grieving process was protracted. Months in most cases. So when the end […]
