Hi,My Name Jane Austen
Award-Winning Sci-Fi Visionary & Storyteller
As a celebrated author, I craft intricate tales that whisk readers to distant galaxies, where the human spirit’s resilience shines amidst cosmic challenges. My stories explore humanity’s struggles—whether facing alien empires, uncharted planets, or ethical dilemmas of advanced technology—through vivid, meticulously built worlds. Each star system and character pulses with life, earning my work critical acclaim, including the Nebula Award, for its imaginative scope and thought-provoking themes. My books, from epic space operas to intimate character studies, resonate globally, sparking dialogue about humanity’s future and the universe’s mysteries.
I’m deeply honored to share my journey, from sketching star maps as a child to becoming a voice in speculative fiction. My passion lies in inspiring the next generation of dreamers, encouraging them to explore the infinite possibilities of storytelling. Through my narratives, I aim to ignite curiosity and hope, showing that even in the vastness of space, the human spirit can endure and thrive. Join me in this adventure to uncover the wonders of the cosmos through the power of words.

This one hits different when you’ve lived it
As a guy who played Division I ball and had a short pro career overseas before injuries ended it, MAX POWER felt 100% real. RL Little captures the mental side of sports, the glory, the temptations, the career-ending moment, and the fight for redemption, in a way most books never do. Maxwell Powers isn’t a superhero; he’s a former star using the same instincts that made him great on the court to solve a life-or-death mystery involving his friend Bobby Smalls. The basketball details, the media pressure, the “one bad night can change everything” vibe… it all rang true. This isn’t just a thriller, it’s a story about second chances that every athlete (or former athlete) will feel in their gut. Highly recommend. Can’t wait to see where the series goes.

Finally, a thriller that actually gets the sports world right
MAX POWER is a slam-dunk page-turner. Little nails the pressure of pro athletics—the fame, the fall, the comeback—while delivering a fast-paced murder mystery that starts with a dead woman in an NFL superstar’s hotel room and never lets up. Maxwell Powers isn’t some cartoon detective; he’s a washed-up NBA legend who uses real pattern-recognition skills (that “Sherlock Syndrome” is genius) to unravel the conspiracy. The twists are sharp, the action is intense, and the bromance between Max and Bobby Smalls feels authentic. If you like Lee Child or Michael Connelly but want a story soaked in locker-room realism and big-league stakes, this is it.
Mike Reynolds
A gripping mystery with real heart and heat!
As a woman who loves smart thrillers and complex characters, MAX POWER completely pulled me in. Maxwell Powers is flawed, fascinating, and impossible not to root for, he’s not some invincible hero; he’s a former NBA star trying to rebuild after hitting rock bottom. I loved how RL balances high-stakes suspense with emotional depth, especially the tension between Maxwell, sharp journalist Lex Rabit, and no-nonsense Detective Leslie Nights. The murder mystery keeps you guessing, the sports world feels authentic, and the redemption story hits different. This is the kind of book you finish in one sitting and immediately want the next one. Perfect for fans of Harlan Coben with a sports twist. Can’t wait for the rest of the Maxwell Powers Universe!
