After spending twelve years working as an Analytical Chemist in a Metals and Minerals laboratory and sixteen years as a stay-at-home mum, Pippa Jay is now an Academy Science Technician who writes scifi and the supernatural. Somewhere along the way a touch of romance crept into her work and refused to leave. In between torturing her plethora of characters, she spends the odd free moment creating cosplay, tending her chookery of chickens, and studying the Dark Side of the Force. Although happily settled in the historical town of Colchester in the UK with her husband of 26 years, three not-so-little monsters, and a pair of bonkers kitties, she continues to roam the rest of the Universe in her head.

Pippa Jay is a dedicated member of the Science Fiction Romance Brigade, Broad Universe, and EPIC, blogging at Spacefreighters Lounge, Adventures in Scifi, and Romancing the Genres. Her works include YA and adult stories crossing a multitude of subgenres from scifi to the paranormal, often with romance, and she’s one of eight authors included in a science fiction romance anthology—Tales from the SFR Brigade. She’s also a triple SFR Galaxy Award winner, been a finalist in the Heart of Denver RWA Aspen Gold Contest (3rd place), the 2015 EPIC eBook awards, the 2015 RWA LERA Rebecca (2nd place), and the GCC RWA Silken Sands Star Awards (2nd place).
