Bio:
John Musgrove grew up in Virginia and had a stint in the US Navy before starting his IT career. He married the love of his life in 1986 and they haven’t been apart since their first date. He waited until middle age to begin writing seriously, but now that he’s all-in he prefers to write historical fiction that illuminates otherwise-forgotten LGBTQ figures that made history for other reasons – Lewis Ginter, Grace Arents, James Buchanan, and Baron Von Steuben to name a few. He’s known throughout Richmond as “Cookie John” for his baking prowess, and is an IT Geek: nerdy, introverted, fascinated by technology, and easily distracted by the next shiny thing that catches his eye.
