About

I’m a fan of making things simple, so let’s break it down into bullet points.

  • Full name: Sarah Galyean Jones.  I’m going to guess you’ve picked up on that by now.
  • Memphis, TN is home base.  I love it here, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to grow roots in a southern mid-size city with mild weather and low cost of living.  Plus, you can take your dog just about anywhere.
  • I am represented by the wonderful Victoria Skurnick at Levine Greenberg Rostan Literary Agency.
  • I’m a graduate of the University of Arkansas with a B.A. in English Creative Writing and a double minor in Communications and Art History.  The Art History portion of this degree was just for fun.  I also attended the Emerson Summer Creative Writing Program in Boston, MA.
  • Until the print component folded in 2018, I was a full-time editor at Justine Magazine.
  • My first novel was released by Lands Atlantic Publishing in 2016. You can check out my book here and check out my publisher here.
  • I currently freelance as often as I can, and am working on new projects.  Stay tuned.
  • Some things I like:
    • All varieties of cheese
    • Halloween
    • Strong coffee
    • Celebrity scandals
    • An inbox full of friendly voicemails
  • Some things I’m not so fond of:
      • All varieties of cats
      • Thanksgiving
      • Plain tea
      • Political scandals
      • An inbox full of unsolicited spam

Give me a shout!  I’d love to hear from you.
