Jax's Story
Jax Garren is the author of romantic, adventurous urban fantasy that brings ancient myths into a modern setting, including gods and rock stars in the Godstones, vampires and witchcraft in the Austin Immortals, and fairy tales re-imagined in the Tales of the Underlight.
A former English and theater teacher who aims to be Rupert Giles when she grows up, Jax can spend as much time researching obscure historical details for her books as actually writing them. When not falling down a research rabbit hole, Jax dreams about traveling anywhere cold (which Texas, her home, is not) and loves to play foodie with her husband. They live with two amazing teens she’s proud to call her daughters and three cats who didn’t get enough treats last night. Just ask them.

TheScott
My inspiration for twenty years… This photo sums up our relationship perfectly.

The Fam
My other inspiration… “pie-drunk” children after they ate way too much sugar. I love these ladies!

The Cats
You’ll see a lot about these guys in my social media!

Kaylee
Snuggler in Chief, Kaylee came to us from a shelter after she was evacuated from Houston during Hurricane Harvey. She’s a serious cuddler who knows who’s really in charge around here.

Charlemagne
Charlie is the old man of the house, watching the chaos around him with unflappable calm. He’s always up for a chin scratch and loves to watch TV with the family from a comfortable lap.

Jeremiah
Jeremiah (seen here in a, uh, dispute with Kaylee) came to us from a shelter as a kitten. His high-pitched meow and ferocious purr can be heard around the house when he’s look for a pet.
