Jayne Calvin

Jayne Calvin is a native Floridian who was born and raised on the sandy beaches of Florida’s west coast. Her education includes Masters degrees in mental health counseling, and in healthcare leadership. Many of her best years in both fields were spent giving direct patient care, both as an ICU nurse and a counselor for court ordered perpetrators of domestic violence, as well as suicidal adolescents.

The biggest influence in her life, though, has been raising her two daughters. Her thoughts about mothering, and especially single mothering, are reflected in her short stories.

Her action/suspense novel, co-authored with Dr. Timothy Bullard, provided her with a welcome opportunity to write about complex legal issues.

She and her daughters still call Florida home. Jayne and her soulful dog, Mr. Brown, reside in the center of the state.
