Meet Vanessa Jean
As a mother of two, I know the importance of stories that excite both kids and adults alike. My love for challenging language inspired me to write captivating adventures that will inspire your imagination and make you ponder. My work aims to expose young readers to important themes like love, loyalty, and bravery, while keeping them engaged through every chapter. I believe that storytelling is a unique form of art that can be used to connect people from all walks of life.
My Story
For me, it all began with bedtime stories read by my Dad. All the classics on repeat, I think to this day Dad can still recall all the words to 'The Lorax'. In addition to these fond moments, the words of great authors weaved dreams that danced in my mind long after my eyes closed. But it wasn't just my father who fueled my passion for storytelling; my dear grandma Jean added her own special touch, spinning tales of enchantment and wonder that transported me to realms beyond imagination.
​
Her unique stories, were filled with fairies, dragons, and daring quests and paved the way for hours of imaginative play and creative day-dreaming, whilst also igniting a fire within me to create my own tales someday.
​
Now, as a mother myself, I've inherited the mantle of storytelling passed down through my family tree. I share the same stories that once enchanted me with my own children, watching as their eyes light up with the same wonder and awe that I once felt. Together, we embark on journeys through the pages of books, discovering new lands and meeting characters who feel like old friends.
It is my sincere hope that any reader who wants to join me on adventure, or perhaps share an adventure with the special adults and friends in their lives, find my stories accessible, interesting and imaginative. Where the power of storytelling knows no bounds. Let's turn the page together and step into a world where dreams take flight and magic is just a heartbeat away.
