A Bookish Jem

HI! I’M JESSICA.

I’m a New England-based professional writer, photographer, and lifelong reader and gamer. I started as a writing blogger, later explored fashion, and now focus on mental health and personal storytelling.

I share honest reflections on living with depression and anxiety along with lessons I learn daily about self-care, kindness, accountability, and healing. I balance the weight with lighthearted lifestyle topics I love – travel, reading, gaming, photography, and writing.

When you’re here, you’re part of a community; you have someone like you here for you. I’m glad to have you, and I hope you enjoy reading!
