Vellichor and More

Vellichor and More's founder Jessica Pietro has been enchanted by fantasy worlds her entire life.

Though she dabbled in writing, she never anticipated being a published author. In 2019, she began selling her artwork and teaching art under the name Vellichor and More. Then in 2021, after a horrible season of healing from past traumas, she began writing The Great King and the Seer. Evidence of this journey is woven throughout the series as her characters learn to love, grow, and heal.

It is her hope that others who experience her craft will be captivated by her struggle. That they will be left feeling vulnerable and seen and maybe even understand themselves a little better. Or, at the very least, know for certain they are not alone in their suffering. Jessica never dreamed her life would end up this way, but she is so happy and so fortunate that God has allowed her this path.

Not only is she passionate about art and stories, she also enjoys movie nights with her boys, creating, adventuring, learning, sitting on her front porch chatting with friends, spending time with family, studying her bible, organizing, music, dancing, hiking, anime, kayaking, bubble baths, camping, boardgames, and sitting in a comfy seat with hot tea and a good book.

Jessica resides in Pennsylvania, with her husband, their son, and their kitties. Find out more about her by connecting with her on social media.
