S.C. Jensen is a Canadian fiction writer, sci-fi and horror enthusiast, and literary advocate. She lives with her husband, children, and various fuzzy friends on an acreage in The-Middle-of-Nowhere (a.k.a. Northern Saskatchewan). She spends most of her days crafting stories about ordinary people forced to act in extraordinary situations and is perpetually rooting for the underdog.
Thatโs because she used to be the underdog in her own story.
Since quitting drinking on August 31, 2018, sheโs come into her own as a sober creative and hopes to share her experiences with fiction lovers from all walks of life.
Jensen dabbles in horror, thriller, mystery, and contemporary literary fiction but her first reading and writing love has always been science fiction. Recently, sheโs attempted to mash all these interests togetherโdrawing from American pulp noir detective fiction of the 1930s-1950s and from cyberpunk sci-fi of the 1980sโto create a pulpy sci-fi thriller series called Bubbles in Space.
Sheโs used this series to play with all the toys in the genre fiction sandbox, dress archetypes up in the wrong outfits, flip tropes upside down, and generally make a mess of conventions and expectations. One big trope sheโs decided to do away with is that of the alcoholic detective.
As a sober writer, it has become a personal goal for Jensen to focus on telling the stories of sober charactersโboth those in recovery and those who maintain abstinence for other reasonsโas a way to normalize abstinence, sobriety, and recovery in pop culture. She wants her books to be a safe, validating place for members of the sober community.
Bubbles Marlowe, a sober cyborg detective, marks Jensenโs first foray into writing sober characters, and sheโs been extremely well received. Readers agree that Bubbles in Space is an absolute rollercoaster of fast-paced action, irreverent humor, larger-than-life characters, and plots that keep you guessing until the very end. But above all, theyโre rooting for their favorite underdog, Bubbles.
