Literary Jewels: Introducing J.L. Sapphire

Author Bio: 

Joyce L. Thomas, also known by her pen name J.L. Sapphire, is a self-publisher and the founder of Lady Virgo Publications. She was born and raised in Arkansas and she still lives there with her husband and two children.

As a single mother for many years, her love of writing took a backseat to parenthood but she continued writing short stories, hoping one day she would be able to publish them. She released her first novella, My Secret Life: Confessions of a Housewife, in May 2014 to rave reviews, where it reached #2 in the the Best Sellers category of African American Erotica and #3 in the Contemporary Urban Fiction category. Her novel Two Can Play That Game was published June 27, 2014 and spent 3 consecutive days at #1 in the Best Sellers category for Contemporary Urban Fiction. Her other titles include Masquerade-Nina's Revenge and What My Wife Didn't Know, an e-short story.

Writing is Joyce's version of Calgon, by locking herself in her room, she can get away from everything & everybody (at least for a little while) and lose herself in the lives of the characters she creates.
