Jed Quinn

Author, DreamCon
Author, historian, world traveler and raconteur, Jed Quinn is a man of obscure
talents and strange associations. Jed spends his days teaching as a community
college history professor, being a father to five ridiculously awesome kids,
serving on his local school board, writing, and traversing the globe. Jed has
released two books with Mike Koogler and Jaren Riley, Hade’s Gambit and The
Rise of Cain, and has been working on a new young adult series whose first
books are Orchard and Cove. He’s felt fortunate to have some of his short
stories picked up as of late, which haven’t helped pay any bills but have made
him feel like people might actually like him. One of his proudest achievements
is being a founding member of the author’s group Writer’s Anonymous. He’s
learned a lot in his life, but the lessons he would leave to his children include:
be nice to everyone, especially those responsible for feeding and caring for
you, stick with your favorite sports teams, no matter how bad they are, spend as
much time with those people who like you best, read constantly, love deeply,
sing poorly, be weird if that’s what you want to be, and never, never, never stop
moving towards your dreams. Oh, and have the time of your life at ICON.
