J.E. Larson
J.E. Larson’s journey in writing began with a good old-fashioned spiral notebook in middle school. Jotting down stories and characters that filled her imagination and never seemed to leave. As an adult, with the encouragement of her husband, Kevin, she bravely worked up the courage to open her laptop and start writing. Utilizing the quiet 5 am mornings before work and the kids to create fantasy worlds with magic, adventure, and a dash of romance.
After earning her undergraduate degree in natural science with a minor in geology and two master’s degrees in education, J.E. began writing her debut novel, A Trial of Fate, book one of the Valdor Series. Her debut novel won the Shelf Unbound Longlisted 2024 award, along with a special edition sold internationally by The Ink Pages.
When J.E. is not writing, she loves staying active and spending quality time with her two daughters and husband. When a free moment strikes, J.E. can be found hiking through the mountains or returning to her first love of playing volleyball.
J.E. lives in Alaska, sharing the love of her home state with her husband, two daughters, and their two Labrador retrievers.
