Goodreads Author


Born
Duluth, MN
Genre
Children's, Young Adult

Influences
Sharon Creech, the Williams Shakespeare and Faulkner

Member Since
April 2014


Jane B. Mason grew up in a large family in northern Minnesota. She has written books for kids of all ages under many names and on many subjects, among them ghosts, Jedi, detective duos, princesses, twins, mean girls, and slam books.

Jane has lived in the midwest and on both coasts, but appears to have settled in Oakland, California, and writes almost every day at either a friend's dining room table or a little studio in her back yard, where she has a purple loveseat, a whole lotta books, and an odd selection of trinkets she has unwittingly been collecting since she was a child.

“I opened my mouth to do some calm explaining. "I'm gay." is what came out.”

“Introduction day was always fun to observe. Sometimes the connection between a dog and a handier was instantaneous.. When that happened, it was almost like watching two cartoon characters fall in love. While nobody’s eyes changed to red hearts and big clouds of love didn’t magically appear around them, the connection was so obvious, they should have. And even when the bond was a little slower to form, you could usually tell if there was something there.”
