Biography
Jay Chesters is an award-winning author of contemporary fiction, interweaving folklore, science fiction and social commentary.
After being variously published as a journalist, Jay began writing stories for his debut collection when the bears lumbered into his imagination back in 2019. Realising the bears wanted a whole book, Jay wisely agreed to their demands.
Jay grew up in England’s home counties, which have a surprising non-zero number of bear sightings, and he’s spent the last 20 years living in a dozen different cities across three continents. Jay now lives in Perth, Western Australia, with his fiancée and two boisterous cats.
