Meet the recommended writers January 2023

I have been writing for over 30 years, but professionally for 5 years. I have been steadily a contemporary romance writer, but I am branching out into different sub-genres of romance. I am trying to center in on being a romance author with the focal point of my stories focusing around my Jewish faith. More of a secular and culturally dynamic, I hope I can showcase Jewish characters in a main character love interest role, rather than the stereotype I’ve always seen people have my community represented by.
When I’m not writing, I read and I take care of my son and husband. My life outside of writing is rather mundane. So, writing is as exciting as I get. As for the kind of content I typically cover can be considered triggering to some readers. I like to introduce not glorify, gloss over, mock, or overindulge in topics that may offend of harm someone else. But, I try to show people realistic struggles that many people face in their lives. That could include peer bullying, irresponsible self-harm, mental illness, etc. Most of my material are not meant for readers under 18.

I'm Patricia, a 20-year-old writer on Wattpad and a third-year pharmacy student. I began my writing journey in 2021 during the lockdown, but I’ve been passionate about storytelling long before that. While English isn't my first language, my education and the influence of various shows have helped me hone my skills, inspiring me to transition from school essays to writing full-fledged novels. To date, I've completed two fanfiction books: Future [H.S], a science fiction novel inspired by my love for the Maze Runner series, and Rhythm [H.S], a romantic realistic fiction short story. I’m currently working on two more projects: Trauma [H.S], a realistic fiction novel that is based on true events, and Simulacrum [H.S], another exciting sci-fi adventure. You can find them on Wattpad under Pats1Dbooks. My studies in pharmacy enrich my writing, allowing me to incorporate real-world knowledge into my fictional worlds. When I’m not writing, you can find me immersed in music—I play both the viola and violin and enjoy singing. Reading, especially science fiction, is another of my great passions, often serving as a source of inspiration for my stories. At the moment, I write for fun and as an escape from reality, but I dream of one day publishing physical books to share my stories with a wider audience.

I based my first novel ‘Some are evil’ on a period in my late twenties when my other identity first revealed itself. At the time, I thought it was the alcohol that caused me to stray from the boundaries of normality, and I’m sure it helped by suppressing the anxieties that might have stopped the – somewhat warped adventures from actually playing out.

The thing that did help the spirit inside me to immerge was the shelter from the stage; after all – we are but the actors in somebody else’s play… We have to live up to the identities on the script, but off stage – in a secret wilderness – away from the audience, anything is possible.

My childhood years were troubled… My father died when I was fifteen after a long battle with his demons, and my mother suffered from severe depression, I remember the worry of whether she would still be alive when I got home from school or if she had managed to play out the deed that she yearned for. I spent my early teenage years in a my-own depressed state.

J. Alleyn Winchester is the author of Artemis of the Dodekatheon and Nature Calls, Spring. Listening to his father play on his guitar before reading bedtime stories from the Children’s Book of Virtues, Aesop’s Fables, or The Chronicles of Narnia was a beloved bedtime ritual. He fell in love with how myth and lore shaped generations of cultures and studied storytelling from literary, theatrical, and spiritual perspectives from a young age. They inspired him to write his own tales, starting with one page shorts that would grow into a few chapters. In middle school, he found that stories helped him navigate the complexities of growing up with depression, anxiety, and alternative world views. When he was sixteen, he began developing three, far-reaching series that would later be called The Triad Sagas, two of which were Dodekatheon and Nature Calls. He married his high school sweetheart and muse who shares his love of storytelling with their feline familiar, Archibald. Together, they hope the Imaginings Universe plants new seeds of inspiration in the hearts and minds of generations now and to come.
