Jessica Mailloux - Author
Jessica Mailloux knew at a young age that she wanted to be a writer. Before she could write as a child, she would draw stories by hand.
I just want to thank everyone waiting for Book 2's release for being so patient with me. I know I'd originally said I intended to release it within a few months from December, but there were a few setbacks that occurred between then and now. I've gotten my book back from my editor after they had various hurdles to overcome on their end, but now I have to bring my computer in for a few things that I've been putting off for a while, primarily for freezing and needing an update. Once I get it back, I'll complete Book 2's final touchups and send it to my formatter.
On top of all this, I'd been overwhelmed with other things outside of writing, especially with the results of the March 10 storm. But, despite everything going on, Book 2 WILL come out in the future. I just don't have an estimated timeframe right now due to things not lining up as I want them to right now. So, don't lose faith in me, I haven't forgotten about my readers. I appreciate everyone's patience with me!

Hi all!
I have finally created an emailing list/newsletter, where I plan to reveal exclusive content, such as character illustrations (which I draw by hand and manually touch up on my computer), sneak peeks, event announcements, and updates about future books, including Book 2 of The Freedom Fighter Saga, which DOES have a title, a cover, and a manuscript that is still being constructed between my editor and I.
I don't have an exact release date YET, but the email list will be the first to know when I have a clearer idea on pre-orders and a release date.
If you would like to be signed up for my email list, you can privately message your email address to me here so that I can add you to it.
The emails would come from [email protected]. So, be sure to add it to your contacts if you wish to sign up and receive updates so that they don't risk landing in your spam folder.
As always, thank you all for your continued support of my lifelong dream and for your wonderful patience with me! β€βΊοΈ

Hi all! Just giving an update on my writing progress. I've been working on the second book in 'The Freedom Fighter Saga' for some time. My editing work is still in progress, but it's difficult to manage because I have very little free time and writing/editing demands a lot of mental energy. But I'd rather take a long time to release a quality product than rush to release a sub-par one. I have a list of things I'm trying to achieve right now, from getting my second book ready to setting up a website sometime in the future and releasing character illustrations that I've hand-drawn. It's probably a good thing I don't know how to use AI for anything. π I prefer doing everything by hand, anyway, from writing to artwork. Although some of my illustrations I have colored/edited with a manual digital coloring program on my computer.
In the meantime, I have spoken little about my current book that's available, Symphony of Steel, as I've been trying to concentrate on working on my second one, which has been a challenge but is slowly and surely coming along.
I brought the E-book price for Symphony of Steel down to $2.99 recently for anyone without Kindle Unlimited wanting to check it out. I do also sell paperbacks for $17, either directly or through Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

And if you have read it, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could leave a review on the Amazon page as reviews helps authors get noticed more often and thus, sell more books. βΊοΈ

BOOK EVENT #4 COMING UP!
On Sunday, March 24th, from 9:30am-4pm, I will be returning to Collector Con 2024 at the Kankakee Expo Center at the fairgrounds, selling and signing copies of my fantasy-fiction novel, Symphony of Steel. I know I have had people trying to make it to one of the events I've attended since I got published so that they might purchase a signed copy directly from me, so here is another chance. π
Books will be going for $17 and I'll be able to take cash or card. π
Explore an alternate post-apocalyptic America with medieval combat where mythical creatures stand on the brink of a war that can only be stopped by a girl chosen to fight the Devil to the death.

OFFER ENDS SOON!!
So, Amazon has done a price-cut on the paperback of my book from $16.95 down to $11.44 and I have no knowledge on how long that will last. I just checked the page today and saw the price cut, but I still get the normal amount of pay in case anyone was worried that I'd get less pay at this price. So, for anyone wanting to take advantage of this price while it stands, just follow the link below.
PS: if you have previously bought and/or read Symphony of Steel, I'd truly appreciate if you could leave a review on the Amazon page as reviews help books become noticed more. π
Thank you all for your continued support!

December 31 will mark my 1-year-anniversary as a published author and 1 year that Symphony of Steel has been out. So, to celebrate, I will be having a .99 sale on the Kindle E-book version of Symphony of Steel starting at 8am on December 30 and ending at 11pm on Jan 1. Normally the E-book is 3.99, unless you have Kindle Unlimited, where it's free. So, if you've wanted a copy of Symphony of Steel but haven't been able to afford it, if you don't mind E-books, you can take advantage of this special offer and get the E-book for .99 from December 30 to January 1.
And don't forget to leave a review. :)
