All about JoJo Leslie
 

It was my indignant toddler, at the age of 3, who inspired my author journey with a candid, ‘Don’t talk about that!’  That small but hilarious response to a fortuitous fart, ignited a spark for a picture book story idea. It was funny, real, relatable and raw. 

Inspired to practice what I preach I now throw myself into every kid lit opportunity I can—manuscript assessments, bootcamps, structural edits, competitions, author workshops, writing communities—you name it! I recently dipped my toes in the waters of self-publishing with my debut picture book, ‘Bad Day to be a Berry!’  My manuscript ‘Neil the Seal’s Salty Tantrum,’ also made a splash landing onto the shortlist for the Jackie Hosking Spring Competition 2024.

One of my bucket list items is to see my stories validated through traditional publishing.
