Authors
You’ll never have to pretend to like the likes of Hemmingway, Kundera, or Franzen ever again.
THE AGENCY PRESS COLLECTIVE IS A COMMUNITY … and A LOW-BRO ZONE

Olivia M. Jacques
Olivia M. Jacques loves neurotic, relatable heroines with humour and heart. She’s a Canadian, but her books are usually set in the USA and she favours the “unnecessary u” in her spelling. When she’s not secretly writing “chick-lit” she’s busy being an overwhelmed mom and chewing on Chiclets in a sad attempt to mask her perpetual coffee-meets-night-cheese breath. Such is the life of a writer!

Jayne Starwing
Jayne is the fantasy pen name of women’s fiction author Olivia M. Jacques (who is also one half of the duo writing as Sera Foxe). Woah nelly, that’s a lot of pen names! Jayne writes stories that merge historical drama and classical myth with exciting and mind-bending speculative fantasy and swoony supernatural romance. Expect devastation, morally gray men, and love in the ruins.

Maggie Mavens
Maggie writes short, steamy romances featuring all your favourite tropes. Whether you love alphas, cinnamon rolls, curvy heroines, holidays, enemies to lovers, small towns, big cities, secret babies, or something in between, Maggie is probably working on something spicy for you right now. And of course, all her quick-reads come with an HEA guarantee!

Sera Foxe
Sera Foxe is a two-for-one deal. A collaboration between authors Jayne Starwing and Vilyn DeVine, books by Sera Foxe are epic Faerish Fantasy Romances. Expect fated-mates stories of friendship and family (found and biological) unbound by the limitations of the known world.

Vilyn DeVine
Vilyn DeVine writes new sci-fi romance. The Eudoxia series includes paranormal romance shorts featuring alien protectors from the planet Hydor and the human women who love them. Readers are calling these alien romances fun, fresh, and captivating.

Violet Lynn Aster
Violet Lynn Aster writes small-town stories of love, family, and finding your purpose in life. She is a highly-experienced educator who studied and teaches English literature and she loves to create characters who are striving for happiness and comfort in the world. She lives in New Brunswick with her husband, two small children, and a coterie of farm animals.

Jen Selk
Jen Selk is an Agency Press organizer. She has made her home in Fredericton, New Brunswick and loves helping indie authors succeed. She spends a lot of time decorating, is interested in myth, and is sometimes a potato. She’s also a geriatric mom who lives in a bougie area with her academic partner and is on a journey to slowly recover from life-long snobbery-infection. Jen writes personal essays, memoir, children’s fiction, speculative fiction, and poetry. You probably won’t like it, and that’s okay! She is chronically online and would prefer not to be judged, but she’s also very used to it.
