edit data

J.O.Ellis is an author living in the piney woods of Texas with her veteran husband, autistic son and two dogs, not including the several other animals she brings into her home on a regular basis. When she’s not writing she can be found lost in a pile of books, advocating for the inclusion and rights of the neurodiverse, thrift shopping, or befriending a woodland creature.
