Short Bio
Born and raised in the rustic backwoods village of Talkeetna, Alaska, Judah Mahay acquired a unique upbringing, which fostered his creative spirit. In 2005, he earned his BA from Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan with a focus on Business and Japanese.

In late 2008, he had his first story "Lord of the Dome" published in New York Twist Magazine and not to long after "The Trees of Evermore" won a writing contest to be published in the North Shoreian Magazine. A few months later his story "Lord of the Dome" made into a short film after winning a contest by WeMakeYourMovie.com.

Along with these accomplishments, he founded the business community and resource BeYourArt.com. The website has grown to almost seven hundred artists and has published eleven video/audio podcasts, co-published ten articles with the North Shoreian Magazine, and hosted the annual "Be Your Art Writing Contest" where the winner received a custom artist logo worth five hundred dollars.

In the fall of 2009, he had a his poem "Willow" published in Mississippi Crow Magazine. In the beginning of 2010, he will have the amazing opportunity to have a two week long residency at Robert Wilson's Watermill Center, where he will write a collection of short stories entitled "Watermill Grimoire."

Currently, Judah lives on Long Island with his wife Lorien where he spends his free time writing short stories, and working on his novels under the watchful eye of his cat, Athena.

Hello Judah,

Wanted to thank you for featuring my "2u..." for a while now - well, Thanks! :-) I also wanted to try my luck and write a few lines by the writer contest, just for fun - did't make it but it was a good thing to know that you really set things on the move! Maybe another time... Have a great Weekend!
