Ellie Jay is an independent author with a love of fiction and a nasty habit of sarcasm. She writes books of all different genres, and ties them all together with sarcastic third-person narration.

At the moment, her published works include The Secrets Series, a trilogy of Russian Mafia action thrillers with dashes of sci-fi and overarching sarcasm and Planet Of Lies, a sci-fi story that is packed full of witty dialogue and narration.

She also dabbles in book reviews, author advice, social media marketing and so much more.

Recent developments include Ellie's partnership with Neil Noble, a fellow author, with whom she has formed NobleJay, a fledging publisher producing short story anthologies in other to support indie authors around the world.
