J.E. Warr is the founder and public face of Local Authors Only from Lago Vista, Texas.
He is a prolific short story writer and author of books like The secret History of Bloody Bill Anderson, A Ticket to Hell, The Ant That Ate the Shark, Texans' Tall Tales: By a Tall Texan, Ghost Writers, Christmas Gifts, and Short Tails, Shelter From the Storm, and Yellow Hawk. His work often draws from Texas life, with a folksy, humorous style rooted in personal experiences (e.g., as a car dealer and "motorcycle maniac").
Warr has only a high school diploma and positions himself as a non-elite, accessible writer rather than an "ivory-tower" author. I’m the Bob Eucker of Texas writers.
He’s actively involved in Texas writing communities, such as leading sessions with the founded Local Authors Only and conducts Texas Writer League classes, and contributes to group anthologies from the Lago Vista Writers Group and high school short story contest.
In short, it’s a community-oriented, mission-driven publishing support effort focused on making local Texas stories visible in physical retail while tying success to charitable causes. If you're author it is designed for accessible, local-first publishing. You can check them out directly at localauthorsonly.com.
