Early and Personal Life

Growing up in Los Angeles where she was born and raised, she would always be a voracious reader, always looking to immerse herself deep within a book. This would then lead to her undertaking an interest in writing herself, something which she would work at building upon throughout the following years. Taking in a lot of inspiration from her surrounding environment, she would manage to create a style that was all of her very own.

Living an active life, she would take to the outdoors, undertaking extensive active pursuits and various activities. These included such things as sky-diving, rock-climbing and hiking, all of which are a source of inspiration for both her and her work. Gaining a love for what she is writing about, she takes her experiences and feeds them all back into her books, as they provide a great deal of material.

Writing Career

Bringing out her first book in 2017, S Jae-Jones would make her debut onto the literary scene with the book ‘Wintersong’. This would also work to become the first novel in her ongoing series of the same name, as she would later follow it up with ‘Shadowsong’ in 2018 just over a year later. Both of these would effectively mark her as a fantasy writer to watch in the following years to come for fans of the genre.

The ‘Wintersong’ series would come to epitomize what really made the works of Jae-Jones work for readers of the author all across the world. With universal themes and ideas, they really drew everything together, making them all work alongside each other.

Working as an artist as well, she is highly skilled at illustration, something which helps further her and her craft. Previously working at a large NYC publishing house as well, she used to edit novels for other writers, something which helped give her an insight into the industry. She is actively a great outdoors person, something which helps to inspire each novel that she releases as well.

Gaining critical acclaim for her work, she has been lauded by both her many peers and contemporaries alike.

Wintersong

Brought out through Thomas Dunne Books back in 2017, this was first released on the 7th of February to much acclaim. Not only setting up the much loved ‘Wintersong’ series, this would also mark the arrival of an exciting new writing talent. Introducing the many leading characters, it would also work at establishing the premise, as well as the overall tone and ambiance of the series to follow.

Dreaming of the legendary Goblin King all her life, the nineteen year old Liesl lives a humble life tending to the family inn. That’s when her sister, Kathe, is kidnapped by the Goblin King and taken to his Underground Realm, where he is Lord of Mischief and ruler of all. Heading there herself, Liesl must make a deal with him for the safe return of her sister; her hand in marriage, which he duly accepts. Can they get out of there? Will she be stuck there forever? Who will sing the Wintersong?

Shadowsong

Released through the ‘Wednesday Books’ publishing label this time, this followed on directly to the first, effectively providing a sequel. Published on the 6th of February, it continued in much the same vein as before, it being released just under a year later. With many of the same themes and ideas as before, it manages to take what worked and essentially elaborate upon that.

Set just six months after the first novel, Liesl is now back above ground, the life before an almost distant memory now. Working on both her and her brothers musical careers, they are all looking to the future, whilst her younger brother Josef seems both cold and distant. Try as she might, though, she can’t get the memory of the young man she left behind out of her mind, as she soon heads back to the lair of the Goblin King to discover the truth of who he really is. What will she find? Can she uncover the truth? Who will this time be singing the Shadowsong?
