Scott James (S.J.) Varengo was born in 1960, (fifty years to the day after the passing of Mark Twain - take from that what you will), in a city called New York. Two years later he formed a band called The Beatles [citation needed].

He returned to New York City to attend Fordham University (having been told it was a basketball powerhouse) before transferring to the State University of New York at Potsdam (having been told it was located in the tropics), from which he earned a bachelor's degree in Art History. (Aside from the handsomely framed diploma and his ability to run art categories on Jeopardy, it hasn't really paid off).

Varengo loves to read (favorite authors are too many to list in this limited space, but include Craig A. Hart, Hunter S. Thompson, Kurt Vonnegut (even though he has no middle initial), J.R.R. Tolkien, and an up-and-comer named Ernie Heming-something-or-other), listen to music (when he writes, it's usually jazz - the rest of the time it's Industrial Techno Punk - oh, it's a thing), and walk along forested trails with his wife Kim. He lives in Baldwinsville, NY, a suburb of Syracuse, known for its picturesque setting and its friendly people. He has two adult children of whom he is obnoxiously proud.

His published works include a volume of short fiction called WELCOME HOME which was recently revised and updated, The Cerah of Quadar Series, The Cleanup Crew series, and SpyCo novella series, which he co-writes with Craig A. Hart. The two have also co-authored SERENITY REBORN, the latest installment in Hart's Serenity series. Varengo's next novel, JELLY JARS, will be available soon.
