Jonathan Golding grew up in South East Asia as the son of Protestant missionaries. An avid reader, he developed an interest in writing early in life. He attended the University of La Verne, in Southern California, where he majored in literature and theater arts. Although he initially desired to imitate the works of modern and avant garde poets and novelists, he eventually found himself drawn to classical forms of expression. While researching the literature of late antiquity, he began reading the early Church Fathers. He converted to Eastern Orthodox Christianity in 2006. He currently resides in San Diego, California. Previously, Golding contributed to Clearing Paths: A Darkly Bright Anthology of Verse (Darkly Bright Press, 2021). Visit his website, Worlds Imagined: www.httpstextures.com.
