Joelyn is a Fiction Writer by whenever, inclined to the genres of Crime, Mystery, and Investigative fiction.

Her writing has been published in Happiness at the End of the World, Bubble G.U.M., CERIPH: The White Issue, and 1000 Ways to Die (Twntysmthg).

Joelyn was featured in TODAY (2009), and blogsites HereBeGeeks and Aspiring Mangaka Writers Group (2010) as an entity of the Happy Smiley Writers Group. She was also interviewed by The New Paper (2010) on her efforts to use fiction to raise funds for Very Special Arts, a non-profit organisation.

Her interest in crime fiction emerged from characters like Sherlock Holmes, Lisbeth Salander, and Jason Gideon. Apart from deepening her interest in the genre, these influences pushed her to focus on character-driven fiction pieces.

In addition, she advocates the acceptance of all creative fiction as literature, and is currently looking into how the literary arts in Singapore can be more vibrant.

Joelyn attained her Bachelor in Mass Communications (Public Relations & Journalism) from Murdoch University in 2010. She hopes to pursue Graduate education in Creative Writing, Criminology, or Behavioural Sciences.

But when she’s not busy with life, Joelyn can be found indulging in dance & martial arts, pinball, and being a general enigma. She is currently working on a crime novel series set in Singapore.
