Jobie Hughes (born July 9, 1980) is a former ghost writer for the Lorien Legacies series. He attended Black River High School and later attended Ohio University, where he graduated with a degree in Management Information Systems. Hughes would later attend while in his late twenties, graduating with a MFA degree in Creative Writing. On November 12, 2010 it was reported by news sources that Hughes would no longer be ghosting the Lorien Legacies series after The Power of Six, citing a dispute over the direction the series was going in. There was also rumored discontent over the initial contract with Full Fathom Five, with the Wall Street Journal reporting that Hughes had renegotiated his initial contract, which had required strict confidentiality over his identity as one the series' ghost writers and would penalize Hughes if he violated those terms.
