I’m Joanne, or at least professionally I am. In my day-to-day life, everyone calls me Jo, unless I am in trouble! I adore stories in all forms and have loved writing for as long as I can remember. I spent many hours as a child writing short stories and even songs, and my love for writing has only grown as I have. 

​

I live in the south of England with my four cats and more books than I can possibly count. Aside from writing, I love to read, sing, dance and spend time with my loved ones, especially my eight gorgeous nieces and nephews.

 

As I got older and life got in the way, writing was put on the back burner until I suffered some health issues and found myself looking for hobbies that didn’t require too much physical activity, and that is when I rediscovered my love of the written word and telling stories. 

 

Shortly before lockdown, I began to write my first ‘real’ series with the hope of publishing, and so 'The Cull' was born. The series has now expanded to include three books, with the fourth and final instalment coming soon. 

​

I am also very soon to publish my first Romantasy novel, 'The Flames of the Fallen' . The first book in the Tristiania Chronicles. Release date TBC.
