ⓘ About Joseph Skibell

Joseph Skibell is an American writer from Lubbock, Texas, best known for the writing of a series of novels, essays, and memos with plot lines with a wide-ranging collection of wisdom from the Talmud. Living in Lubbock, his childhood was steeped in pop music and he asserts that he found inspiration for his works from the works of the greats of the 70s such as Jackson Browne and Bob Dylan. His love for the poetic lyrics of the greats was one of the very first indications that he might just find a career in storytelling. As for his literary inspiration, he cites the Talmud as his most favorite work as he believes it combines the best elements of the literary greats from Tom Stoddard, to Sophocles, to Shakespeare.
