What I’m doing now
A new cover for It Starts with a Kiss
It’s out! It’s out! Yay! It Starts with a Kiss, my steamy sci-fi office romance novella, has a brand new cover. I did love the shiny hues and photographic realism of the starfield in the old cover, but there’s something about this soft sunset pink that stokes my dreamy moods. Have a looksee 👀
The Only Question That Matters
A re-release of “Question” is back out in the world with a brand new cover that doesn’t look too new because I loved what the previous designer did with the original artwork. If you’d like to get your hands on a copy, you can find it in my shop, on Kobo Plus, or through your local public library ebook collection in conjunction with Hoopla, Libby and OverDrive 💞

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑 80%
The series’ first drafts are now at 80% completion. Cue that sigh of relief that I’m not a slacker, and that turtle-writing can get one to The End in good stead 🐢
Currently playing Split Fiction
Not just a cute odyssey of teamwork, emotion and swearing, the premise of this game speaks to my writerly heart. Two writers – one sci-fi, one fantasy – find themselves trapped in an idea-sucking machine operated by a Big Corporate baddie. Besides a whirlwind of SFF tropes, it’s also a whirlwind of tributes to game mechanics and old favourites of older millennial gamers.
There are funny moments, cheesy moments, tear-jerking moments, and puzzles that reveal my poor reflexes and hand-eye coordination. And if I’m reading it right, we’re up to the Approaching The Cave part of the Hero’s Journey, which means we’re not far off the end. I must say, it’s certainly a test of how N and I work together as a couple. Pretty sure we’re doing okay 😅

Things will still happen on this, though not at the moment.
Who am I? 👩🏻💻
G’day, I’m JL. I write love letters to the future, most often in the form of romantic science fiction and fantasy novels, novellas and short stories. From here, you can check out my books and stories and keep up with my work via Dot Club (my slow, low-noise email newsletter).
