ABOUT US

Semper Fi Press is the private imprint of Jonathan Brazee, a retired Marine colonel now living and working in Thailand. He was born in Oakland, CA, but has lived throughout the US and the world and has traveled to over 100 countries. His undergraduate degree was earned at the U. S. Naval Academy (Class of 1979), and he has attended graduate school at U. S. International University and the University of California, San Diego, earning a masters and doctorate.  He is a member of the Disabled American Veterans, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the US. Naval Academy Alumni Association, and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. 

He published his first work back in 1978, a so-so short story titled "Secession." Since then, he has been published in newspapers, magazines, and in book format in fiction, political science, business, military, sports, race relations, and personal relations fields. His best-selling work is his Return of the Marines trilogy. All three books in the trilogy have made it to the top 25 in Amazon's Action and Adventure Best Seller List.  His United Federation Marine Corps series has done even better, with Recruit reaching #209 on Amazon's fiction best-selling list, and #21 in science fiction.  Every book in the series has broken into Amazon's top 1,000.

As an editor, he has helped several authors get their works into publication-ready form.

Semper Fi Press was created as a co-op to help centralize the publication process for independent authors.  Writing that first draft is the easy part.  Molding that first draft into a final version, formatting it for various e-book venues and for print, and marketing the book are all much more difficult, but are are vital in making any book a success.
