Shelly Jay Shore

Shelly Jay Shore (she/they) is a writer and nonprofit fundraiser living in New York/Colonized Lenapehoking. In her day job, she helps organizations improve their digital fundraising and social media strategies so that they can do the good-for-the-world work that makes a difference. As a storyteller, Shelly writes queer fiction and creative nonfiction, usually with a side of weirdness, speculation, eroticism, or all of the above.

In her free time, Shelly reads a truly alarming number of books (and writes the occasional review), single-handedly sustains their local coffee industry, and attempts to wrangle two large dogs and two small children.
