Get to know Jamie...
Birthdate? April 26, 1984
When did you start writing? About first grade or so. My very first story was a straight-up ripoff of The Little Mermaid, written by hand. I think I might still have it somewhere.
When and what and where did you first get published? My first published story was called "Boy Meets Girl," and it appeared in the Winter 2007 issue of Trail of Indiscretion.
What themes do you like to write about? Innocence, the nature of love, free will, and mortality.
What books and/or stories have most resonated with you as an author? Why? How do these stories and their characters find expression in your work? Bloodchild by Octavia Butler deals with many of the themes that most interest me, and I love the characters in Peter S. Beagle's The Last Unicorn. They all have a quiet depth that I'd love to be able to emulate.
