A Jay F. Roy, The Destined Teller of Tales
Greetings, Cosmic Travelers,
Allow me to introduce myself—My name is A. Jay F. Roy, the mastermind behind "The Adventures of Alex Midas," a suspenseful psychological and supernatural horror tale that teeters on the edges of reality and nightmare. Born and raised in the heart of San Antonio, Texas, my roots in South Texas culture and folklore run deep, intertwining with the very essence of my stories.
My journey as a storyteller began with humble origins, crafting narratives inspired by my real-life experiences and those of the people around me. I honed my skills while working as a licensed real estate agent in Dallas and developing a board game called Cosmic Convergence, where I took on the challenge of writing 2,000 words a day to breathe life into the game's world.
In my debut novel, "Hexll County Jail: The Revelation," I invite you to join Alex Midas in a haunting tale of isolation, paranoia, and self-deterioration, all set within the eerie confines of Hexll County Jail. By drawing from reimagined South Texas folklore and urban legends, I delve into the darkest corners of human experience, bringing you stories that linger in the shadows long after you've turned the last page.
When I'm not weaving tales that blur the lines between the real and the supernatural, you might catch a glimpse of me riding my Cosmic Blue bicycle through the streets of downtown San Antonio, sporting my signature gold fedora.
As a teller of tales and creator of unseen worlds, I draw inspiration from the whispers of the cosmos, embracing the mystery and eccentricity that define me, in hopes that my enigmatic charm leaves much to the imagination.
So, travelers, welcome to my world—a place where reality and fiction dance together in a delicate, haunting balance.
Yours in mystery and wonder,
A. Jay F. Roy

Alex Midas
My name is Alex Midas. Within the Cosmic Classics universe, I assume many roles: observer, narrator, and even participant in the tales that unfold. I transcend time, adventuring in 1984 or exploring stories set in 2052. Occasionally, I even become my creator's fictional persona.
I am the voice that guides you through the shadows, the eyes that witness the inexplicable, and the presence that lingers in the eerie silence. My stories weave together threads of the supernatural, psychological, and horror, inviting you to step into a world where the ordinary meets the extraordinary.

In this universe, I have many roles, but wear only one hat—a gold fedora.
