Excerpts from two novel manuscripts (At this Elevation and A Bite this Deep) are available for your enjoyment while Janessa works on the next novel. Without ongoing writing projects, she might die.

Janessa is represented by Valerie Noble at the Donaghy Literary Group.

Fun facts: Introvert. Chaotic good. Jhol with the momos. She loves reading horror, but passes out over wounds and medical items in real life. She once fainted from thinking about a cannonball hitting her.
