About PJ Harris-Fool
Writer of LGBTQ fiction, science fiction, and poetry that live at the intersection of memory, identity, and the unexplored frontiers of mind and soul. His work explores the fractures we carry, the bonds that might heal them, and the quiet, unseen forces shaping every life. Each story blends lyrical intensity with emotional grit to reveal the tender and the terrifying in equal measure.
For more than twenty-five years, Harris-Fool has published essays, short stories, and poems in LGBTQ outlets, creating space for queer voices across intimate and speculative landscapes. His upcoming series, The Riftwalker Saga, begins with Between Stars & Souls: a heart-wrenching science fiction epic where memory and destiny collide through the intertwined lives of two young men bound by forces older than the stars. Equal parts psychological thriller, metaphysical mystery, and romantic odyssey, his stories are made to linger long after the last page.
Away from the keyboard, PJ is a full-fledged sci-fi nerd, a devoted explorer of spirited political and religious debate, and an unapologetic advocate for queer representation in every arena he inhabits. At home, he is held firmly under the paws of his beloved rescue mutts, Izzy and Cora. He maintains that every creative accomplishment in his life is simply a ruse to justify spoiling them with treats, toys, and unreasonable levels of affection. They allow him to believe he is in charge.
In his parallel career as a top-producing Realtor in Fort Wayne, Indiana, he has been named LGBTQ Midwest Realtor of the Year (2021), LGBTQ National Realtor of the Year (2023), and, most recently, received the 2025 LGBTQ Connection Advocacy Award for his work in community outreach and representation in housing.
He believes in love stories that hurt a little, science fiction that aches like truth, and a world that becomes more humane every time someone dares to tell their story.
