About j. l. richards
As an author with a primary focus on writing books, including novels, short stories, and Kindle Vella series, I am dedicated to the craft of creating captivating and engrossing narratives.

When it comes to the writing process, Scrivener is an invaluable tool that provides a seamless environment for brainstorming, outlining, and composing. It allows me to organize my thoughts and plotlines meticulously, ensuring that every element of my story aligns perfectly. ProWritingAid complements this by offering a powerful editing suite that helps polish my work to perfection, enhancing clarity, style, and grammatical precision.
My main objective is to independently publish my works, embracing the freedom and creative control that comes with self-publishing. To achieve this, I continuously seek assistance in generating ideas, developing intricate plots and compelling characters, refining my writing skills, and devising effective marketing strategies. The goal is to not only produce high-quality literature but also to reach and resonate with a broad audience.
With a keen interest in mythology and historical fiction, my journey of creating and sharing stories is deeply passionate. I draw inspiration from ancient myths, legendary heroes, and the rich tapestry of history, weaving these elements into my narratives to create stories that are both timeless and contemporary. My fascination with the past allows me to breathe life into historical settings, while my love for mythology imbues my work with a sense of wonder and magic.
My inspirations have been luminaries such as Lizzy Ford, J. K. Rowling, Brandon Sanderson, Morgan Rice, and more. Their works have significantly influenced my writing style and narrative techniques, guiding me in crafting stories that captivate and enthrall.
In addition to writing, I am dedicated to honing my craft through continuous learning and growth. I attend workshops, engage with fellow writers, and explore various literary resources to stay abreast of the latest trends and techniques in storytelling. This commitment to improvement ensures that each new work surpasses the last, providing readers with an ever-evolving and enriching literary experience.
My main series, "Bureau of Sins," is a testament to my dedication to storytelling. It delves into complex characters and intricate plots, exploring themes of morality, justice, and the human condition. Each installment is designed to immerse readers in a world of suspense, intrigue, and emotional depth.
