About this title

About the Author:

Jon Garett & Richard Walsh are the creators and co-authors of The Adventures of Seamus Tripp. Jon & Richard are both Virgos, and they throw the full planning and attention-to-detail typical of the sign into the world of Seamus Tripp. The stories are woven with humor, a memorable stable of characters, recurring narrative arcs, and - of course - lots and lots of adventure. The authors have been friends and creative collaborators for more than 20 years, with much of their previous creative energy going into roleplaying games, board games, and proofreading and editing each others' individual projects. The world of Seamus Tripp represents an equal partnership that blends their shared interests in genre fiction, world religions and spirituality, cryptozoology, and - of course - adventure. Jon Garett lives and writes in Minnesota with his inspirations: three cats, a parakeet and his wife. Responsible for Seamus Tripp and Willy Wise, he spends his non-writing time as a sometimes adventurer of his own; hiking, camping, cycling and traveling, and as a would-be dissident; an extensive reader and student of Forteana, philosophy, political science and economics. Richard Walsh is a part-time writer, full-time husband, father, and accountant. He lives with his family and a pack of basset hounds in the suburbs of Minneapolis. When not writing The Adventures of Seamus Tripp, Richard also stays busy with local politics, roleplaying games, and light (very light) jogging.
