Jera Brown is a nonfiction writer and journalist. Through the written word, they seek to fight for those oppressed by an unjust society, use their platform and skills to promote marginalized voices, and provide hope and healing for those who need to know that they have inherent worth and that their life choices and identities are valid. Jera’s personal blog, Church of the Scarlet Letter, is about being a queer, ethically non-monogamous, kinky, sex-positive Christian. Their multi-faith blog, Sacred and Subversive, offers queer perspectives on the future of faith communities. There is also a book proposal in progress for an anthology of personal essays. Just the Tip is their queer- and sex-positive sex and relationship advice column. The Sessions is their memoir-in-progress in which they compare their professional relationships with an escort and a psychotherapist. They explore why a sexual journey is also a spiritual one, and the tension between wanting to continue being an explorer while also longing for someone who feels like home. They are almost done with their first draft and will be sending it out to agents this fall. Miscellaneous Freelancing: They regularly write pieces for a variety of publications on various social justice topics.
