Welcome to the abode of Elise Carlson, YA Fantasy author!
I’m an Australian, non-binary writer and my pronouns are they/ them. On my blog, you’ll find editing, querying and indie author advice.
My pages feature my Epic YA Fantasy books, external links to my favourite writer resources, more about yours truly, and a chance to nab yourself a free action-adventure fantasy story, should you be inclined to join my newsletter.
They also detail myriad ways to contact me, though alas carrier pigeon is not one of them, despite that it sometimes feels more reliable than technology 😉

Congratulations on your site! It’s great! I found it via Twitter. I’m a newbie and a writing enthusiast. It’s nice to see someone who wants to publish traditionally like me. Good luck with your novel. When you get your agent, you know it will be a good seller! Kudos again!
Thanks so much Jacob!
