About

Jes McCutchen (she/her/hers)

Jes lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma with her partner and their kiddo. As well as two weenie dogs, Rocket Xavier and Fable Rose Pond. When she’s not writing, she is program coordinator for an after school arts program at a community arts center in her hometown. She loves board games, soft sci-fi shows, and using stickers in her planner.

Jes is a Science-Fiction & Fantasy YA author whose works are full of ensemble disaster queer casts and the occasional crime and/or alien. She writes books that are nostalgic and humorous with (spoiler alert) happy endings for the sweet baby gays. (An editor once compared her writing to “Stranger Things minus the trauma”).

Her debut novel “Chronicles of My Alien Invasion Life” came out Summer 2022, followed by “A Mean Piece of Water” in December of 2022. Her forthcoming novel, “Jean Harlow and the Legend of Stonefish Creek” will come out in spring of 2024.

She is also a co-editor for Horns And Rattles Press, an indie press located in Tulsa. Their first anthology “Fish Gather to Listen” came out summer 2023.
