Welcome readers and writers!
My name is Sallianne (rhymes with Marianne). I write historical and contemporary women's/general fiction and JAFF (Jane Austen Fan Fiction), as well as nonfiction about simplifying life and intentional living — and I've also written a book about editing especially for authors. (For more about my editing services go to https://www.quinnediting.com.)

ABOUT ME
I haven't always been a writer.
My varied work experiences — in children's mental health,
as a tree service co-owner, graphic designer, camp counselor,
riding instructor, dog groomer, landscape designer,
food server, substitute teacher, respite care provider,
and legal assistant — have provided me with
a goldmine of ideas for my writing.
Most of my life has been shared with horses,
dogs, cats, and children. I find people and animals
endlessly fascinating and always inspiring.
I love history, identify strongly with my Celtic roots,
and believe it is never too late
to become the hero or heroine of your own story.
I enjoy hearing from readers. Do send me your comments,
questions, and requests.
