J. Paul Ross

J. Paul Ross is a Colorado native who lives and writes at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. He is a Phi Alpha Theta graduate of Metropolitan State University of Denver and has traveled throughout Mexico and Central America with the MSCD Language and Culture Institute. A Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net nominee (Border Crossing: Vol 7, Fall 2017,) his fiction has appeared in over two dozen online and in print magazines and journals from the U.S. to Latin America (La Revista Literaria Centroamericana) and Europe (Strukturriss.)

Most days, he can be found in a dark walk-in closet, working on a novel set along the Pan-American Highway and cursing his monitor for inserting comma splices into almost every paragraph. This, of course, is insane because everyone knows that the monitor is solely responsible for run-ons — comma splices are the printer’s fault.
