Williamaye Jones

I’m Williamaye Jones, novelist, editor, and host of Lust Through the Ages, the podcast where history takes off its corset.

This channel is where I explore how stories work:  on the page, beneath it, and in the lives they reflect.

From Renaissance Italy to the salons and scandals of later centuries—and into more intimate, contemporary settings—I share readings, reflections, and cultural and psychological threads that shape the stories we tell and the ones that stay with us.

You’ll find:
– Story readings and historical fiction excerpts
– Audio essays drawn from my writing
– “Reading like a writer” insights
– Behind-the-scenes glimpses into my own work

This is storytelling for readers who want more and writers who want to understand why it matters.
