Jayme Bean will try to convince you she's "boring" and there's "nothing interesting" about her even as she casually. mentions she's a zoo-keeper by trade, and when she's not working with tigers she DM's Dungeons & Dragons and writes fantastic sci-fi and adventure stories. Jayme was one of the contributors who helped us write Under New Suns, Volume 2 of Tales From the Year Between, and we loved her so much that she's back for Volume 3!
But Jayme isn't just a Skullgate author! Her debut novel, Untouched, just came out today to fantastic initial sales and rave reviews from advance readers. I pre-ordered my copy, and while I'm not finished so can't give a full review, the 70 pages I've read have been great! While I love big ideas and fantastic settings, the one thing that keeps me reading a book is the actual prose--I've got high standards for what constitutes "good" writing. And what makes Untouched stand out is that Jayme is a great writer! Dialogue and descriptions come to life on the page, so if the rest of the book is at all as good as the first, it's going to be great!
You can order Untouched for your Kindle or in paperback and harback from Amazon or wherever books are sold. And if you want to learn a little more about the author and what makes her tick, I sat down with Jayme a few weeks ago as part of my "Coffee at the Skullgate" interview series for our podcast. Give it a watch or a listen!
