About

Who is Jay Lucky?  Well, it’s a pseudonym I came up with years ago…

The story goes, one night some friends and I were sitting around drinking Carlo Rossi straight from the jug by our pinkies (don’t ask), when one of my friends comes up with the bright idea of making up pulp names for ourselves in the great old fashion of the pulp novels from the 30’s.  Everyone came up with some great names as we went around the room, to which for the life of me, I can’t remember ( I was completely fucked on cheap wine, so that might be why ).  By the time it got around to me, I could barely speak, let alone be creative, so I stammered around for a bit before finally blurting out “Jay Lucky”, a combination of my initials, J.A.Y., and Lucky.

Brilliant says I… however it was immediately ridiculed for being, as I recall, “stupid”… which, it very well might have been, however it stuck.  I’ve used it for almost 12 years now as an alter ego, of sorts, and it has culminated in this website.

So there you have it.
