Johnnie Clay Begins Writing Sci-Fi:
Late in 2002, Clay began delving into the Sci-Fi realm, coming up with the idea of a series of nine novels (now perhaps eight due to Pluto being reduced to a 'dwarf planet'). In 2004 his first manuscript was sent off to his publisher, Publish America.

Johnnie Clay's Thoughts:
"Everything around inspires me. Whether it's chatting with someone online or meeting people out in the city, somehow it makes its way into my books. Eventually I might branch out into another genre, but right now I'm just having fun in the sci-fi world."
