About JK

 

Jamie, known as JK to friends, is a mom, travel junkie, graduate of Harvard's Masters in Creative Writing and Literature program, and teller of stories. She lives a short drive from the Maine coast with her family and two goofy Great Danes.

Her storytelling has historically been done through business branding, communication strategy, and marketing, but over the last few years, she has dug into her craft while attending writers’ workshops and poured her heart onto pages in the form of adult fiction. She is a 2023 International Page Turner Awards finalist, 2025 Tucson Festival of Books Annual Literary Awards semi-finalist, and is currently finishing revisions on her second novel.

JK is represented by Jill Marsal at Marsal Lyon Literary Agency and a proud member of:

Women's Fiction Writers Association
Manuscript Academy
Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance
2021 Alumna of Adrienne Young’s Writing with the Soul Workshop
2022 Alumna of Algonkian Writer's NY Writer to Pitch
