JT Smith

JT has is a Native American creative born and raised in Florida, where his passion for storytelling and artistic expression began at an early age. He proudly refers to himself as a jack of all trades when it comes to creativity, always seeking new ways to bring ideas to life. Whether it’s writing, photography, or world-building, JT finds joy in exploring different mediums and learning how they work. While he’s dabbled in many creative outlets, his current focus is on writing—particularly in the realms of fantasy and science fiction.

For JT, fantasy and sci-fi aren’t just genres, they’re doorways into endless possibilities. He loves the freedom they offer in creating worlds, characters, and systems that don’t just entertain, but reflect meaningful ideas and cultural influences. His work often blends folklore, futuristic concepts, and emotional storytelling to create immersive, imaginative experiences.

A lover of culture and cuisine, JT is fascinated by the customs, myths, and dishes of people from around the world. He dreams of traveling more, not only to explore these places firsthand but to incorporate their spirit into his stories. He believes that cultural appreciation through storytelling is a powerful way to foster connection, empathy, and understanding.

Outside of writing, JT is a talented photographer with a sharp eye for angels and atmosphere. He enjoys capturing the small, fleeting moments of everyday life and framing them like visual stories. His work behind the lens often inspires his writing, helping him ground fantastical ideas in the textures of real life.

Pop culture is another major influence in JT’s creative toolkit. From video games and anime to graphic novels and classic films, he draws inspiration from the stories that shaped him growing up. He sees these mediums not just as entertainment, but as creative springboards for developing characters, scenes, and dialogue with personality and depth.

Above all, JT’s goal is to help others find and nurture their own creative voices. Whether through collaboration, conversation, or simply sharing what he’s learned, he hopes to inspire others to chase their ideas and bring their own worlds to life. Creativity, to JT, isn’t just a skill—it’s a way of connecting with others, expressing identity, and making something meaningful out of imagination.
