Britney Jackson is an award-winning author of LGBTQ fantasy and sapphic romance. She’s adored books for as long as she can remember and has loved writing for almost as long.

She has a passion for creating the kind of heroes she needed when she was younger: heroines with mental illness, flaws, and traumatic pasts. She centers her books around strong, lesbian and bisexual women who find courage, love, and happy endings.

She resides in Alabama with her two kids and the snuggliest cat you’ll ever meet. She has a Bachelor of Science in Fine Arts and Religion and did her graduate work in English.

Her recent sapphic fantasy novel, Pirates of Aletharia, won a Goldie Award in 2022, and she’s currently at work on its sequel.

💙 Thanks so much for reading! 💙(less)

When I’m feeling something strongly, I try to stop whatever I’m doing and write. That's often not possible, but I try. I have a lot of little “rituals” I turn to when I need them. I create music playlists for every book series, and I burn candles that smell like my characters. 😅 When my brain feels sluggish, I drink too much chai. I’ve always found that being the near the river helps, so I do a lot of my writing at the park. Sometimes, none of this works, though. Sometimes, the only thing that does is remembering why I do what I do—and why I can’t give up. 💙(less)

Sapphic Book Bingo

I finally made some book cards for Sapphic Book Bingo! (In my defense, I’ve been sick for AGES.)

If you’re participating in Sapphic Book Bingo this year, here are some of the categories Pirates of Aletharia and Goddess of the Sea fit! 💙

(The dragons would absolutely be offended by us calling them “pets,” but…I think they count. 😅)
