Enter the woeful worlds of Jacque Aye
“adding magic to the mundane” with each strange book I write!
As a woman who suffers from depression and social anxiety, I’ve made it my mission to candidly share my experiences with the hopes of helping others dealing with the same. This extends into my fiction work, where I pen tales about woeful women trying their best, with a surrealist, magical touch. Inspired by authors like Haruki Murakami, Sayaka Murata, and Lemony Snicket, my stories are dark, magical, and humorous with a hint…well, a bunch…of absurdity.

Are you a woeful woman who loves cartoons, pop culture, and chatting about feelings? Or…maybe you just want project + life updates? Join my personal Sadgurlz Club, erm, my newsletter, that's really a diary, where I chat about fiction and feelings. Heavy on the feelings. Diary entries are sent out weekly.
