Hey, I’m Ellen.

Hey you, thanks for checking out my profile! I promise not to let you down!

I’m Ellen “Jelly” McRae (you can thank my husband for the nickname!) and I write the women’s fiction series 1 Lovelock Drive. It’s based on my life in Melbourne, the romances I’ve stuffed up and features the business I have now.

The fiction world is fun. But there is so much more that happens that I can’t ignore and love to share with you.

Here on Medium, you’re going to get from me:

• What I’ve learned from joyful, all-encompassing love and seriously crappy relationships
• What I know from my years building a business, becoming a writer and finding the guts to write about my experiences
• What it’s like for someone to take an idea and turn it into a book (if you’re a behind-the-scenes nut like me, shout out!)
• Failures, wins and everything in between, because I believe you don’t get anywhere focusing on one part of your life
• The fiction series I’m writing (yes, it’s published right here on Medium!)

We might be friends who fight

What I can’t promise is that I will always say something you agree with, or share the same experience as you. The beauty of this platform is that we all have different…
