TESTIMONIALS

"Hi there. I heard a friend of mine bring up your name over Christmas and she told me I needed to read your books. Thanks so much and I look forward to hopefully hearing back from you!"
— L.J. / via e-mail, January 2011 (USA)

"Thank you so much for writing EyeLeash: A Blog Novel. I could totally relate to Jade, sadly my Novan wasn’t right for me. Can’t wait to read your other books :)"
— twitter message, from reader in Scotland

"Dear Jess, I just wanted to say how much I’ve enjoyed your writing: your writing reflects something genuine, something real, about our generation that few writers have had the talent or the courage to uncover.
Thank you."
— e-mail from a male reader, 2010

"Just be assured that you have my support for all your projects, whether writing or living…your imagination is great but above all what comes across in your stories is a very warm, sensitive and likeable person."
— GQ / via inbox @ Goodreads, 2010 (from U.K.)

"[Jess's writing is] raw sometimes and a little rough around the edges, but it’s full of brio. It’s very contemporary. It has personality and energy. It deals with modern issues in a very modern way."
— Joseph Grinton | "Don't Run Away From Sex"

"You have a great web page layout and smokin' work. I have a few of your pieces on my Nook and I caught my husband reading them the other day. He does not usually like erotica but did yours. He is very conservitive, on the outside. He is slowly changing I think."
— e-mail from a female reader, 2011

"Based on the three books I've read, I can say that you're a brilliant writer. They are not shallow reads. Your books do not only entertain but they also make you reflect on what is really important in one's life."
— e-mail from a reader, 2011 (The Philippines)

"I have read a lot of in [the paranormal romance genre] and I believe Jess has a different take that will keep you interested. . .[Jess C Scott] has a voice that should be heard."
— R. Simon (Amazon/customer review on The Devilin Fey), 2010

— Gill Grylls, Guitar/Drum Guru

"I have to honestly say I was pleasantly surprised by The Other Side of Life. Not only was it extremely well edited, but the plot was more well written than some house published books I’ve read. Truly, this was an incredible fantasy novel and a series I’m hoping Jess C Scott keeps up with, because she’s obviously extremely talented."
— Review @ There's A Book

". . .I'm going to go read [Literary Heroin] now. I love Twilight parodies! And thank you for [dedicating the Bad Romance anthology] to me. I am honored. Thank you!"
— Michael K | DListed.com
