J.F. Lawrence

Growing up, J. F. Lawrence was a storyteller through D&D, drawing, painting, sculpting, and more.​ As a Ph.D. student, and then as a professor at Stanford, he studied geophysics and wrote technical papers about the Earth.​ As an entrepreneur, he learned how to write with empathy, and to cater words for the people they were intended for. When he became chronically ill in 2018, he began writing science fiction as an outlet for creativity and as an escape from his body.

His latest book, I REBEL, is the Sci-Fi/Superhero sequel to I NANO.

Tell me about your latest book and what inspired you to write/create it?

I REBEL is the Sci-Fi/Superhero sequel to I NANO. They are aimed at young adults and adults alike. It follows a teen named Mazz as he deals with having a glitchy AI in his brain when everyone else’s works. Accidents follow him wherever he goes. It turns out his malfunctioning AI causes nano-bots to misbehave around him, which he learns are actually misfiring control over the nano-bots, giving him special powers.

I wrote I REBEL to connect with my kids because I have a glitchy brain caused by a chronic illness.
