About Blue Fern Press and Me

Janet Ference, author   

I write short fiction, novels, and plays. I love the worlds I can create with words. It’s always a surprise to discover the lives of the people in these worlds, and I’m grateful to lose myself in the mystery of their stories.

I’m currently writing a series of novellas, Riversbend Jazz for guns, sax, and bass fiddle. Set in America in 2020, this story follows a politically-diverse extended family, as they live and love and fight their way through that history-making year.

In this new work, I’m revisiting the family I first created for an earlier novel, Riversbend Elegy for guns, sax, and harp. That story, set in 2004, brought the family together for the funeral of a young soldier who died in the war in Iraq.

I’ve self-published a collection of my microfiction, Between Blinks, artfully short stories. To learn more about this book of hundreds of tweet-length tales, please check out my home page, ‘Between Blinks.’
