About Jessica
In short…
Jessica Dettmann is the author of four novels - Your Friend and Mine, Without Further Ado, This Has Been Absolutely Lovely and How to be Second Best - and one book for children, There's No Such Book. She lives in Sydney, Australia, with her family and her two cats. Before becoming a writer, she was a book editor. Even before that she once worked as the City of Sydney Christmas Angel, sitting on top of the Town Hall in a gown that reached the street, almost exclusively so she would have an interesting job to mention if she ever had the opportunity to write an author bio.
A little more…
Jessica Dettmann was born and raised in Sydney, Australia, and there she remains, disappointing her fourteen-year-old self who thought she would be living in the pensione in Florence from A Room With A View by now.
She is married and has two children and two cats. She does not enjoy walking on the beach with her dog because parking is very expensive at the beach and she does not have a dog.
Before she became a writer, she worked for a long time as a book editor. She is very lucky Instagram didn't exist back then or she would have been fired for timewasting. Now she is her own boss and she is on her last warning for timewasting on Instagram Stories.
She loves to hear from readers. Preferably readers of her books, but honestly she's not that fussy.
