Jeffrey's World :: A Fansite for the Author Jeffrey Ford

This is the completely unauthorized and unofficial site for the author Jeffrey Ford. Here you will find links to his work online as well as information to where his other published work can be found. Forgive me if there are stories and stufff missing. It's a work in progress.

This site began as a personal project to find all of Jeffrey Ford's online stories. Then it grew into finding all of his novels, story collections, articles, and interviews. Then it grew and grew... So I decided that maybe it would be cool if I shared all that I found and continue to find. So here it is.

I hope you enjoy your stay.

I've always said that Jeff Ford's not just one of the best genre writers,
but one of the best American fiction writers, period. —John Picacio, SF Signal
