J. R. Eldridge is a British satirical fiction author with a fascination with religion and the absurd mythology that surrounds it. Raised in the Church of England, he lost his belief in his early teens, but he remained transfixed with the Bible and studied textual criticism in his spare time.

Growing up, he was an avid reader, spending his evenings reading such books as the Chronicles of Narnia, the Discworld series, and the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy when he was supposed to be sleeping. He has been writing stories and poetry since an early age but kept this as a hobby until the inspiration to transform the joke Bible verses that he’d written on Twitter for a laugh into parody stories.
