About Me

Writing has always been home to me. Something happens when I tap those keys and turn thoughts and mental imagery into words and worlds to interact with. It gives me a satisfaction and fulfilment that I’ve not been able to experience elsewhere. I’ve held a secret dream under lock and key in my heart since I was a little girl that I’d be an author “someday”. It has taken me until my 30s to understand that we create our “someday”, and my someday is today.

So welcome to my corner of the internet.

I’m B.J. Wilde and I’m a writer, mother of three little girls, wife to the man of my dreams, friend, business owner, sister, daughter, ocean lover, wellness prioritiser, and a whole bunch of other roles. I live right on the beach on the Gold Coast of Australia, with my three girls, husband and our dog Frankie.

I spend my time being a hermit, swimming in the ocean, popping down to the local cafe for a morning coffee, at the gym to nourish my mind and body, playing in the pool with my family, or as you can probably imagine, sitting at my laptop turning imaginings into stories you can read.

Writing has been the one common dream I’ve carried with me through my life, and there are two types of writing that do something to my life force, head and heart; romantic fantasy where the world building helps you escape to a completely different reality, and deep, rich and immersive memoir-style perspectives and reflections that help you think and feel more perceptively.

So, I do both of these. I share my memoir-style writings over on my Substack, Made For This, and my debut fantasy fiction epic comes out on November 3, 2025.
