Author Information

RJ Eastwood is from the southwest, smokes thin cigars, and likes his whiskey (how couldn't he with that name?!). He has a soft spot for kittens and damsels in distress and enjoys the occasional game of poker with friends. He lives in an adobe-style house where he can watch the sunset every evening from his front porch. Well, not really... this name is as fictional as his writing. In truth, R.J. Eastwood is the pen name for Robert J. Emery.
