Hi! I’m Emily Jones, writing fiction under my pen name, Elle Michael River. I craft curious fiction from beyond the rabbit hole and perform heart surgery on manuscripts missing their souls. Below is my fiction portfolio.
I also write content and offer personalized creation coaching. I specialize in storytelling, which includes fiction writing, content writing, guest blogging, designing and performing theatrical pieces, and ghostwriting. As a writing coach, I support writers as they pen their novels, offer developmental editing and manuscript assessments, and help artists build and organize their portfolios. I have my MFA in Creative Writing from Southern New Hampshire University and my BA in English from Thomas Edison State University.
I run exclusively on hazelnut coffee, fluffy cats, and an unbridled weirdness some might call creativity, but I'd love to tell you a story. For my fiction work, keep scrolling. To hire me as a content writer or writing coach, click on the buttons below.

In 2019, I began work on my novel Her. Like most of my ideas, it started as an image: a mother holding her young daughter, looking out over a crumbling road as a weary sun set on a sickened, dying world. I didn’t know then—how could anyone?
When Jesus walked into the nuthouse, I knew things would get interesting. Our savior wore a muddy gray t-shirt, a pair of ripped jeans my mother would never allow past her seasonal welcome mat, and a pair of really rad, orange converse.
Published on Reflex Press: Eyes snap open, stirred by a silent alarm. She peels stiff covers from her frigid skin, chilled by a thermostat set to 64 degrees, even in winter. Gray-socked feet hit the stained carpet, and she wiggles her toes. They’re painted a forbidden red.
Isabella was a single white rose in the midst of half a dozen red ones. Held together by pin and lace, like a delicate, porcelain doll, she paused. Would she melt away if anyone spilled crimson wine on her ivory silhouette?

I haven’t read enough self-help books to offer an opinion on the genre, but Girl, Wash Your Face caught my attention because of the controversial reviews and the promise of a “cut-that-shit-out” narrative that would shock me into motivation. It was motivating, but probably not in the way Hollis intended it.
Meg Elison’s The Book of the Unnamed Midwife is harrowing and left me in a cold sweat wondering if the people who died from her pandemic fever were really the lucky ones.
There are those books that grab you by your collar, pull you beneath their pages, and drown you in adventure before you’re fifty words in.
