Jules Machias's debut novel Both Can Be True was named an Indie Next List Pick and was inspired by their experience growing up feeling stuck in the wrong body. Fight + Flight is Jules's second novel and draws on their own battles with physical and mental health. Their writing about gender and healthcare has appeared in Forbes, the American Marketing Association, MediaPost, and more. After graduating, with honors, with a BA in creative writing from Miami University, they went on to work for veterinarians, construction companies, a car parts warehouse, and a middle school for kids with disabilities. After working as a writer and editor in the corporate advertising world for sixteen years, they now own and operate an editing and proofreading business for clients in publishing and advertising. Jules lives in Cincinnati, Ohio with their family and three rescue dogs: the world's happiest pit bull, a chihuahua with congestive heart failure, and a paralyzed terrier.
Layered characters, written with compassion and courage. Ultimately a story about claiming your own identity in the face of opposition. --Booklist A sweetly affirming story at its core. A must for middle schools and high schools, this story is an inspiring celebration of living authentically.--School Library Journal (starred review) Machias's debut handles both realistic emotional journeys with compassion, while offering a nuanced portrayal of the benefits and limitations of labels. A celebration of allyship and fluidity that's a joy to read.--Publishers Weekly The novel grapples with the impact of society's overly simplistic messages. An optimistic journey of self-acceptance.--Kirkus Reviews
