Jane’s first poetry collection, Bright Dust, is described by the International Review of Books as ‘Beautiful and profound but also tender and enigmatic.’ Her second collection, Light Beneath the Lids, is out now

Jane’s other titles include Loss and Hannah for adults, and for children 7 to 11 A Tale of Three Tabbies, described by LoveReading4Kids as ‘a heart-warming survival story – a tale of hope, humanity, triumph over danger and adversity, and winning against all the odds,’ and My Cat Called Red, described by Blackheath Books & Bubbles as ‘a book that really moves you & touches your heart & soul.’
