Jasmine Shouse

Jasmine Shouse is a genre-jumping author. Her works include Insanely Sane and various short stories. With fellow Navy veteran and Colorado native Ginger Salazar, Jasmine is the co-author of the military fantasy series Sethi's Song.

Born in Colorado and raised in Montana, she joined the Navy after high school and served as a linguist and cryptologist, which sounds a lot cooler than it actually is. She left the service in 2020 and settled in northwest Florida with her husband and their three boys.

Review of Insanely Sane by Jasmine Shouse

Shouse makes the case that although the path to healing is neither linear nor easy, unconditional acceptance and love from those around the patients can make the odyssey worthwhile. The author’s first foray into YA fiction strikes the right balance between naïve hope and realistic skepticism in the handling of incredibly heavy themes. An insightful, hard-hitting, and tender tale of converging mental health journeys. - Kirkus Reviews

Insanely Sane has won several awards, to include: 2022 SPR Book Awards, 2022 Regional and Florida Indie Author Project for Young Adult Fiction, 2022 Firebird Book Awards, and 2023 Eric Hoffer Award Finalist.
