Шаблон:Infobox writer Geoffrey Girard is an author of nonfiction, thrillers, historicals, and speculative fiction.

In 2013, Simon & Schuster simultaneously published Girard's techno-thriller novel CAIN'S BLOOD and an accompanying companion novel for teens; PROJECT CAIN.[1] Both books are based on Girard's novella CAIN XP11, which ran as four installments in Apex Digest in 2007. CAIN'S BLOOD and PROJECT CAIN were each shortlisted for the Bram Stoker Award and PROJECT CAIN was officially nominated for a 2013 Stoker Award for "Superior Achievement in a Young Adult Novel" [2]

His previous books include Tales of the Jersey Devil (2005), thirteen original tales based on the legendary Jersey Devil American folklore, Tales of the Atlantic Pirates (2006), Tales of the Eastern Indians (2007) and a YA adaptation of The Iliad (2007). Girard also ghostwrites memoirs and has published fiction (from middle grade to westerns) under various pen names.

His short fiction has appeared in several best-selling anthologies and magazines including the Stoker-nominated Dark Faith anthology and Writers of the Future, an award anthology founded by L. Ron Hubbard.[3] Girard's debut collection, first communions was published by Apex Publications in 2016.

Girard graduated from Washington College with a BA in English literature and later earned an MA and MFA in creative writing from Miami University.[4] He presents seminars on creative writing at colleges, bookstores, and various writer/reader conventions. Girard was born in Germany, shaped in New Jersey and currently lives in Ohio.[5]
