Inked Notebook - Introduction
About the Author
Hi, hello, you can call me Jo or Jenna. I am in my mid-20s and live in Nova Scotia, Canada (east coast). I am disabled with chronic pain and clinical depression, and I am likely autistic (in the process of getting diagnosed).
I am a greyace/demisexual lesbian (or, just queer works, too!). I use she/her pronouns, but gender's weird and I don't really care if you use they/them.
About the Writing
There are two genres I am most passionate about - queer romance and high, new adult fantasy (with queer characters).
I have many WIPs, but here are my main ones atm:
- Icing Waved Off: Queer mlm hockey romance ft. teammates to lovers, friends to lovers, comphet, mental health rep, and sports themes (including the toxic masculinity of men's hockey). This is the first book in my Minnesota Minks series (following books are Home Ice Advantage and Clearing the Ice). [Tag; page; Pinterest board]
- Keeper of the Wild: New adult, high fantasy ft. queer characters, magic, chosen-one adjacent themes, royalty, magic-borne creatures, and more. This is the first book in The Wild Trilogy (following books are King of the Wild and Queen of the Wild). [Tag; page; Pinterest board]
- Aces Are Wild: A collection of 4 related but stand-alone novellas centring around ace/ace-spectrum characters, ft. romance, no romance, trans and nb characters, comphet, self discovery, disability rep, and older characters (30+). [Tag; page]
- Princess and the Pop-Up: Queer, sapphic romance ft. college softball, academic vibes/themes, older students (early - mid-20s), self discovery. This is a spin-off of Icing, in which one of the MCs is the sister of an Icing character! [Tag; page; Pinterest board]
About the Art
I am a self-taught, amateur artist. I enjoy various mediums, including watercolour and acrylic paint, sketching/drawing, and digital art. I also enjoy crafts such as cross-stitch, loom-knitting, Perler Beads, and kits from stores!
I'm working on getting stuff ready to sell some stuff (e.g., prints and cards, homemade stickers, Perler Bead earrings + ornaments + coasters, bookmarks) but in the meantime, I have a Redbubble under a different name.
