Jodi Taylor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the English footballer, see Jodie Taylor.

Jodi Taylor is an English author of fantasy-style historical fiction,[1] historical romance[2] and romance[3][4] novels.

Biography

Taylor was born in Bristol.[5] With her then-husband, Taylor moved to Yorkshire.[6] She worked for North Yorkshire County Council for almost 20 years,[6] in positions including library facilities manager.[7]

Her first book, Just One Damned Thing After Another, was self-published on two download websites.[3] That manuscript was subsequently purchased by Accent Press,[6] which published all her subsequent works, up to December 2018. Headline Publishing Group became responsible for publishing her works as of January 2019.

Taylor lives in Gloucestershire.

Reception

Just One Damned Thing After Another appeared on the USA Today Best-Selling Books list on 21 January 2016 at #74.[8] It earned a starred review from Publishers Weekly, which called it "a carnival ride" in a "world ... depicted in lush detail".[9] The review in Library Journal lauded the book's "appealing cast of characters", with "plenty of humor, lots of action, and even a touch of romance".[10]

The first fan convention, Jodiworld,[11] was held in Coventry, UK, in June 2023. Taylor and her literary agent (and former publisher), Hazel Cushion, were in attendance, with Jasper Fforde as an additional Guest of Honour.
