About Jay
Born in Melbourne, Australia, I have long had a keen interest in children's books, especially those dealing with my favourite place - Faerie. I have studied traditional faerielore for many years now and I am in the process of writing and illustrating several works concentrating on my own vision of Faerie.I now live in Galway, Ireland with my wife and dog.
