Jennifer Goss Duby
Author, Writer, Editor
J.G. Duby is a crime fiction writer and copy editor who lives in the woods of New Hampshire with her husband and no pets because her younger daughter took them with her when she moved out. Her older daughter took the good blender. J.G. has been a mass transit bus driver, paraeducator, and lexicographer, and now works as a technical editor. When she’s not copy editing technical blogs, Jennifer is working on her second novel.
“During my working hours, I edit technical blogs. It’s very dry and sometimes even boring. But it frees my mind for my own creative work, whether that’s writing my second novel or blogging about the process of writing, revising, and submitting fiction.”
Jennifer Goss Duby
Author of Belle, a story about a woman who found a way to beat the system and the inevitable price we pay when our sins catch up to us.
How much are you willing to give up for just a moment of happiness?
A true story… ish.
Meet Belle
BELLE is a darkly comedic tale of a woman in 1890s Indiana determined to succeed in a world made for and by men. She has no trade or skill, and has to rely on her own wit and hard work—and stomach for violence—to get ahead.
The tale is inspired by the very real Belle Gunness, a notorious 19th century serial killer who lured men to her Indiana farm using lonely hearts ads.
