about
Becki Jayne Crossley has had a book in her hands since before she could actually read, and since mastering the art of holding a pencil they've been writing down stories.As a bisexual author, Becki is passionate about queer YA stories that portray the realities of coming out and discovering your sexuality - especially considering the lack of stories they had like this while growing up.When not writing, Becki can be found reading at her favourite coffee shops around Nottingham, playing too much The Sims 4, and occasionally painting things with questionable skill.Becki is represented by Saffron Dodd at ASH Literary.
