Jane grew up in Germany. Although she could have studied law, she decided to study English & American literature instead. Media studies, sociology and journalism followed. Since 2019, she works full-time as a writer. She loves books—whether reading them or writing them herself—and is fond of movies and series, black cats, really good red wine, crispy chicken burgers, jogging, writing, Australia, the sea, coffee half-and-half & chamomile tea, pubs, Man v. Food, adventure documentaries... and of course the moon.
Her motto: In one way or another, we all live on the moon. That's why she has a team of 5 people with deep knowledge of various genres who test-read every book before publication.
Her readers love her for her vivid, strong, male protagonists with role model character (quote) and dialogues.
Previously published:
Novel series "The Moon on Their Shoulders" (for young adults, new adults, and really adults).
Volume 1: Sea of Cold (Have you already seen the book trailer? Click on my picture and select the second video. It's so awesome!)
Volume 2: Sea of Dangers (coming May 2021)
Volume 3: tba (The first 100 pages are written!).
Also in the pipeline: a secret project—a modern fairy tale for old & young (end of 2021?) that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, as in "The Moon on Their Shoulders". Maybe it's true, maybe it's not… We will never know.
