Welcome to Justine Steckling Writes!
Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.
– Benjamin Franklin
My name is Justine Steckling (or J.A. Steckling, if you prefer) and I am a freelance mental health writer, horror author, and poet located in Massachusetts, USA.
I’m most known on the internet as a freelance mental health writer. I write on topics such as depression, C-PTSD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, self-harm, and other topics. I have been published by The Mighty and Unwritten Magazine, and republished by YourTango, Yahoo, and more.
View articles I have written on my freelance portfolio (one of them even went viral in 2020).
As an author, I write under the ‘alias’ J.A. Steckling. I am proud to be a female horror author and to celebrate women in horror. All my fiction falls under this genre, or has a heavy emphasis on the macabre. I have had two poems published in anthologies and my first book will be self-published in September, 2022. As a poet, I cover a wide range of emotions, not just horror.
Check out my writing blog! There is a pinned post with all my works in progress and their anticipated release details plus all kinds of other exciting content.
