Jayne never wanted to be an author, yet somehow wrote a novel and now doesn't want to stop. She works in UK media and is unhealthily obsessed with politics and the zeitgeist generally. Identity and injustice are topics she is drawn to again and again, but she also likes a good pun. If pressed Jayne would describe herself as any or all of the following: Essex girl, demi-Cypriot, Irish adjacent, rusty linguist, mother, rabbit-holer, feminist, idler, daydreamer.
