Connie Chang and J.M. Blakemore started writing speculative fiction together shortly before marrying, figuring that if writing together hadn’t split them up, nothing would. 

Their forthcoming middle-grade novel, Don’t Feed the Hungry Ghosts, won the Lee & Low New Visions Award in 2025.

Their co-written short fiction (at times under the pen name J.C. Changmore) has been recommended by Locus Magazine, featured in khōréō, shortlisted for the 2022 Brave New Weird Award, and won the 2018 NYC Midnight Flash Fiction Competition.

Their middle-grade contemporary fantasy novel, The Legion of No-Weir, was selected for Author Mentor Match Round 9 in 2022.
