Jo Dixon
Jo lives in rural Tasmania, where she wrangles an ever-growing collection of animals, and is kept busy transforming blackberry-infested paddocks into beautiful gardens. She has been a dental assistant, an event coordinator, and a sales rep in the travel industry.
In 2015, while living in Bangkok with her husband and kids, she completed an MA in Writing—realising along the way that she had to stop procrastinating and just write (and finish) at least one book. With the mantra 'If not now, when?' stuck to her computer she kept writing and in 2021 she signed a two-book deal with HQ/HarperCollins.
She now writes full-time, creating twisty, suspenseful stories that feature flawed characters who’ve made mistakes, but who turn out to be stronger than they think.
Jo’s debut novel The House of Now and Then was released in 2023. Her second book A Shadow at the Door will be released in January 2024.
