Eddie Jones basketball playerLooking for Eddie Jones, the former NBA player who played for five teams in his 14-year career?  I am not that Eddie Jones. I did play ball for years and would still be be shooting hoops had I not torn my ACL and pulled a hamstring. David Fajgenbaum, my doctor and the orthopaedic surgeon for N. C. State’s football team from 1989-2009, suggested I stop. “Take up walking or swimming, Eddie.” I took up both but I still miss playing basketball. 🙁

Eddie Jones RugbyLooking for Eddie Jones the Australian rugby coach and former player, who most recently led the England national team? Not him either. I have a friend who played rugby. I drove him to the hospital when the other team broke his nose. Watching players snap Phil’s nose back in place was all the rugby I needed to see to know it wasn’t for me.

Eddie Jones ActorLooking for the actor Eddie Jones who was in Seabiscuit, The Terminal, Sneakers, and A League of Their Own? Not him either. I did enjoy Seabiscuit and A League of Their Own and I have been known to cut up on stage. Sometimes I make people laugh. Sometimes my books make people laugh. Sometimes my novels read like a movie — or so I’ve been told.

Eddie Jones Chillin'
I am the Eddie Jones who is a former book publisher and current writers’ coach. I co-founded Christian Devotions Ministries with Cindy Sproles. I have been a #1 Amazon bestselling author in kids / tween / teen mysteries categories and pirate fiction. I’ve helped countless authors self-publish their books. I teach writing and publishing workshops and co-host a weekly writing podcast called Reality Coaching for Writers. I still surf and sometimes sail when the wind is right and someone invites me to crew.

"The Caribbean Chronicles" is a humorous time-travel pirate fantasy adventure series. The third book, "The End of Calico Jack," won first place in the Selah awards for Young Adult literature. Book four, "No Good Stede Goes Unpunished" is a finalist for the Selah awards for Young Adult literature.

The Caden Chronicles middle grade series is wholesome, humorous reading with a flair for unexpected adventure. The series has a spooky but spiritual message based on real "monsters" (sort of) found in Scripture. Hints at werewolves, ghosts, mediums, vampires, walking dead, mummies, demons, witches, and phantoms are all mentioned in the Bible. But are they real? Nick Caden doesn't think so. In each episode he sets out to prove who the real killer is.

All of Eddie's YA and Middle Grade books are available as audiobooks. Eddie calls his novels, "fun, fast reads for boys who don't like to read."
Awards for Middle Grade and YA novels
* Winner of the Selah award for tween / teen mysteries
* INSPY Award
* Moonbeam Children's Book Award

An avid sailor with a sharp wit and sense of humor, Eddie has been married to a girl he met at a stoplight in West Palm Beach during spring break for... "too many years," Eddie's wife says.

"Not enough," says Eddie.

From 2009 to 2019 Eddie served as CEO of Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas. He now writes full time and mentors authors.
