About Author

From the tender age of six, Jeanne K. Johnson has been entranced by the power of storytelling, crafting whimsical tales of adventure and imagination. Her childhood narratives vividly transformed her surroundings: the family basement became a haven for fantastical blue horses, while an imaginary cousin from Hawaii sent her exotic attire, and a dragon named Puffer roamed the enchanting land of Honeylee.

A natural storyteller, Jeanne’s talent blossomed in third grade when she won first prize for her story, “The Lonely Christmas Tree.” This early accolade ignited a lifelong passion for writing. Throughout the years, she penned several intriguing manuscripts such as “Growing Up and Not Liking It,” “When Did My Life Turn Stupid?” “Dreams of Death,” and “Love is an Overused Word.” Her debut published work, “My Search for Air,” was warmly received, though it didn’t climb the bestseller charts—a relief to Jeanne, who cherished her anonymity and the independence it afforded her.

Jeanne’s prose often navigates the intricate dance between life’s absurdities and its subtle splendours, with Death—a mysterious entity shadowing all—playing a formidable role. Her insights are undoubtedly enriched by her master’s degree in Thanatology, cementing her fascination with life’s finite journey.

Beyond writing, Jeanne reveals a more serene side. Her hobbies include reading, gardening, and crossword puzzles, and she shares them with family and like-minded friends who appreciate life’s peculiarities. For Jeanne, writing is essential; it transcends mere passion, serving as a vital window into the complexities of existence, inviting readers to explore alongside her, one story at a time.
