Jessica Renwick is the author of the award winning The Book of Chaos, the first book in the fantasy series, Starfell, for middle grade children (and adults who love fantasy, magic, and adventure!).

She enjoys a hot cup of tea, gardening, her pets, consuming an entire novel in one sitting, and outdoor adventures. She resides in Alberta, Canada on a cozy urban homestead with her partner, tiny monster dog, four chickens, and an enchanted garden.

Ghosts of Gastown - 2025 Snow Willow Award finalist!

Every year, kids throughout Saskatchewn get to vote on their favourite book in the Sasktachewan Young Readers’ Choice Awards, The Willow Awards. I’m so honoured that Ghosts of Gastown was selected as a 2025 finalist in their Snow Willow category! Seriously, it’s among some fantastic Canadian titles.

You can check out the awards and all the other fantastic finalists here:

Quotes by Jessica Renwick  (?)

“adventure and magic.”
Jessica Renwick, The Book of Chaos

“the spell that required Fable’s blood.”
Jessica Renwick, The Guitar of Mayhem

“Nestor’s description matches her perfectly, remember? Long red hair, tall, and skinny. And she carried a bow.”
Jessica Renwick, The Bow of Anarchy

“Come, little leaves," said the Wind one day, "Come to the meadows with me and play. Put on your dresses of red and gold; For Summer is past, and the days grow cold.”
George Cooper

“You can choose COURAGE or you can choose COMFORT, but you cannot choose BOTH!”
Brené Brown

“We are guided toward certain things: a pen and paper, a guitar, the forest in the backyard, a soccer ball, a spatula. The moment after we don’t know what to do with ourselves is the moment we find ourselves. Right after itchy boredom is self-discovery. But we have to hang in there long enough without bailing.”
Glennon Doyle, Untamed
