Jeffrey "Loner" Gray

Jeffrey “Loner” Gray, although born in Lowell, Massachusetts, has made upstate South Carolina his home for many years. Working as a flea market nomad most of his adult life has afforded him time to pursue other interests: racing cars, kayaking, collecting Indian arrowheads, and producing hundreds of YouTube videos about diverse subjects. Skateboarding competitively since ten years old, he later formed his own skateboard company (SnakeSessionSkates) and sponsored team riders from around the world. But hiking the entire length of the Appalachian Trail has been his biggest accomplishment and Painted Blazes, about his trail experiences, is his first book. Continuing his mother's independent publishing house, Shadow Archer Press lives on publishing books from a variety of authors. Visit Shadow Archer Press: http://ShadowArcherPress.com/.
