Me and Faelan
I'm Jayelle. It's nice to meet you. For 35 years, I've been writing, learning, and perfecting my craft. My first love was art and design, for which I went to school. My second love was writing. Music stuck it's nose under my tent as well. I love all things creative.
I am a native of Colorado, and live in the beautiful foothills, seeking romantic inspiration from the mountains and sunsets. I write from my heart and life experiences.
My greatest happiness is finally finding real love with the man who became my husband. A man who had the patience to let me heal. You'll see pieces of him in all my male leads. He's strong, protective, loving, spiritual, beautiful, a little cranky at times, and my teacher. I love his flaws and his perfections.
Understanding myself and the crazy decisions I made in my past were the motivators for writing Breaking Fancy. I couldn't afford therapy. So, I started writing. It has been the most healing thing I've ever done.
From there I couldn't stop. Writing obsessed me. Learning everything I could about strong prose, editing, pacing, and publishing became my whole world. After years of experimentation, I've settled on being a novelist and writing coach, and I'm passionate about working with other writers.
My forte is spicy romance, a genre I never, in a million years, would have thought I'd write. But I find a strength in it that I can't find in more innocent story-telling. I believe intimacy should be revered and respected for the large part of our lives that it is.
I truly hope you enjoy my work and will check out my services if you are in need of any assistance in writing or publishing. Many blessings on your path!
