When not writing, meeting with fellow writers, reading other writers work, or researching a new field for writing, Jessica Donegan works a full-time retail management job. Jess loves spending time with her husband and dog and lives a quiet homebody life.
Jess is preparing to release her debut new adult urban fantasy story Follow Me: Tattered Veils! As a rabid fan of the bizarre and anything that breaks the mundane, Jessica believes Follow Me: Tattered Veils will tap into a reader’s sense of possibility. Could magic live in our modern world? Are there gods and monsters lurking in the shadows and what holds them at bay? Did our ancestors tell scary stories to explain events they had no reference for or were those stories warnings we would do well to heed? Is all attention “good attention” and is there a time when one’s focus goes too far? Follow Me: Tattered Veils provides a transformative, character-driven story exploring these questions.
Jess’s passion for words dates back to her early introduction of them. As a child, she believed reading was a magical skill everyone, but she possessed. When she’d exhausted the adults with demands to read, she brought her book to the dog and demanded it read to her. She still believes in the magic of language. Jessica continues to love animals and words of all sorts. She strives to capture the power in a good story and make it her own.
