About Me

My photo
Jayaly
Jayaly is a British native who lurks in a corner of south east England. She has two sons, who were once known as The Boy and Tiny Boy, but who are now both bigger than she is. She’s not sure when that happened. She once harboured dreams of being a fantasy writer until the then Tiny Boy put paid to that. She’s picked up the pen again more than ten years later, but just for fun this time. Mostly playing in flash fiction challenges on Tumblr and posting the results on Archive of Our Own. She’s hanging out there as mayberosa.
