Jane Roper is the author of two novels, The Society of Shame and Eden Lake, and a memoir, Double Time: How I Surived—and Mostly Thrived—Through the First Three Years of Mothering Twints.
Jane’s writing has appeared in Salon, McSweeney’s Internet Tendency, The Millions, Poets & Writers, The Rumpus, Cognoscenti, Writers’ Digest and elsewhere, and has been included in the anthology Labor Day: True Birth Stories by today’s Best Women Writers.
A graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and Williams College, Jane is married to singer/songwriter Alastair Moock. They live with their teenage twins just north of Boston in a drafty Victorian house on a hill. When she is not working, writing, parenting, cooking, hiking, rock climbing or wasting time on social media, Jane can be found trying to read and promptly falling asleep.
