M. F. Jones - Writer

Stories That Haunt, Inspire, and Resonate

From a romantic Civil War ghost, to a “friend” who turns intimate knowledge into a weapon, to chilling supernatural suspense, to heartfelt memoir—discover stories that stay with you long after the final page.

Welcome! I write the kinds of stories that, as a voracious reader, I love to savor. Enter my world of spirits, benevolent and demonic; of war and the resilience of the human soul; of the power of  women’s friendship both to heal and to wound; and of the love and responsibility we bear toward our animal companions. 

Stones River, the first book in The Sentinel Heart Trilogy, will be published in mid-2025, as an ebook, paperback, hardcover, and audiobook. To be notified when it is available, please be in touch via the Contact page.
