J. Elliott has written three novels in a funny, Buddhist-theme-dusted, cozy series set in Florida (Monkey Mind, Monkey Heart, and It's a Haint Blue Christmas) and three collections of spooky short stories (Ghost Lite, Tales from Kensington & Other Macabre & Unsettling Offerings and Uncanny Stout.) She is currently publishing a ghost story novel, Jiko Bukken, on Kindle Vella. It is set in Japan in 1993. A frequent contributor to the Hogtowne Quill, the Writers Alliance blog page, she has also had several short stories published in anthologies, most recently, “Individual Staircases” in The Book of Carnacki edited by John Linwood Grant and published by Belanger Books. Though she does not consider herself a talented artist, she is goat-headed enough to illustrate her stories and designs her own book jackets. Additionally, she has had a go at making videos of some her stories that can be seen on her YouTube channel, Hedonistic Hound Press. She resides on six acres of overgrown Florida hammock with her indulgent boyfriend, two basset hounds, and Mycroft, an enlightened being disguised as a cat.
