Jessica Watts

Children’s author specializing in silly stories and fantastical folktales


About Me

I started writing off-the-wall stories at an early age. I’d ask my mom to type them up because, clearly, this made them official. When I got a bit older (and learned how to type), I’d sit on my bed tip-tapping away on an old typewriter—just as I’d imagined all the real authors did.Though I have a culinary degree and am a certified health and life coach, I’m lucky enough to be a stay-at-home mom to my two goofy girls. I look forward to the day they start writing silly stories of their own and I get to make them “official”.
