Joanne Carlton
Author of paranormal Young Adult and paranormal thrillers
Joanne Carlton has been writing in a variety of genres for as long as she can remember. She initially penned in Dutch under the author name Sandra J. Paul, until she decided to pursue her longstanding dream of publishing English-language books and short stories. For many years, she published English-language short stories that she posted online. She writes (mostly) psychological, paranormal stories in a contemporary setting.
In 2017, she debuted the gripping Heart-Beat, following the death of her father and sister. This was later translated into Heart-Beat, which won the award for Young Adult of the Year at the Thrillers and More book group. This was followed in 2018 by the exciting English-language thriller Kill Me Again, which was selected for The London Author Book Club Anthology. In 2019, Dust, a psychological end-of-the-world thriller translated as Dust, was published. In late March 2020, Hell City was published in both languages.
Joanne also writes Flash Fiction (very, very short stories) and novellas. Her future work will appear only in English.
