Independent author J. Alexander Greenwood's writing experience includes feature articles, news and crime stories syndicated throughout the nation in numerous publications. The grandson of the late, award-winning historical fiction novelist Robert E. Trevathan (Ballanger, Red River Angel), Greenwood enjoys the thriller and suspense genre most.

In 2011 he won first prize in the Shelf Unbound Short fiction contest for his thriller story Obsidian, which is available on Amazon. In 2012 Pilate's Key was named a "Page Turner" by Shelf Unbound Magazine.

He is author of the top-selling non-fiction ebook Kickstarter Success Secrets.

Major influences include Robert Parker, Nelson DeMille, Nicholas Meyer, Stephen King, Gore Vidal and Patrick O'Brian.

Greenwood is also collaborating with Pilate's Cross cover artist David Terrill on a novel based on Terrill's art entitled What the Gardener Saw.
