Bestselling sci-fi author Ian J. Malone has written in a variety of arenas over the years, ranging from public health to news and sports. When it comes to his fictional work, he’s a firm believer that nothing shapes a person’s writing like experience. That’s why he credits his tenures in radio, law enforcement, and military contracting for much of his inspiration, plus the legion of family and friends who’ve stood with him along the way.

Beyond writing, Malone serves as an occasional podcaster and radio personality. He is also an avid fan of audiobooks (he’s visually impaired), although it’s not uncommon to find him at a ballgame, a concert, or somewhere out by a grill.

Malone is an active member of the International Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Authors (IASFA) and a proud resident of the Florida Panhandle.
