Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
JBooth
I'm a writer in Northeast Ohio, author of the book "Collect All 21! Memoirs of a Star Wars Geek - The First 30 Years" and the novel "Crossing Decembers." I've been lucky enough to write articles on everything from the founding members of Devo to Pro Football Hall of Fame inductees to the American International Toy Fair and Star Wars Celebration III. I'm also a casual runner and once-a-year ferocious brachiopod and trilobite hunter.
