Love Letters

Jon Martin, was born and raised Jon Martin Baumgardner on August 30, 1968 in the small college town of Kent, Ohio. The youngest of six children and the only biracial sibling in his family, Jon had a very culturally diverse upbringing. Born a dreamer, he has enjoyed the freedom to travel wherever his imagination led him. Writing has become a way for Jon to capture and record his dreams word by word and line by line. Having been Federally incarcerated since 2004, the worst tragedy may have given birth to his life's greatest opportunity. Closing in on the end of his sentence, Jon plans to continue honing his skills and perfecting his craft as a writer and storyteller, jumping genre and sharing his dreams from both sides of the fence.
