Lola Jaye was born in London. Hardly a genius child, she did manage to complete a BSC Degree in Psychology at the University of East London, before completing a Masters in Psychotherapy and Counseling at Regents College. She currently works part time as a counsellor/psychotherapist in the UK and sometimes writes books.
Lola’s passion for writing began around the age of ten, crafting a weekly series of stories written in the solitude of a top floor bedroom. Her first compelling ‘serial’ was called Karen and Terry. A thrilling account of the life’s and loves of two girls – boyfriends, hanging around and…. boyfriends.
It was a few years later and after completing a really long research thesis for her Masters Degree that Lola realised she could actually write more than a thousand words. The thesis was on Cross Cultural Psychotherapy and Counselling (a good and fascinating read actually) with a 20,000 word content. So it was after this she embarked on writing a novel which will probably never see the light of day (thankfully).
Moving on.
By the Time You Read This…was Lola’s first published novel in the USA and UK. Followed by a self help Quick Read called Reaching for the Stars… How to Make your Dreams Come True and another novel; While You Were Dreaming (available in the UK and online).
Lola’s books have been published in the UK, USA, Germany, Serbia and Korea.
