Welcome
Hello, I’m Eleanor Ray. I write uplifting stories about finding hope and belonging when life takes an unexpected turn. Through my novels and my podcast, I love exploring the quiet magic of everyday life — how we connect, how we heal, and how we keep looking up.

Ray of Light is my new podcast for book lovers and creatives. Each episode, I chat with authors about writing, reading and finding joy in the process. It’s a celebration of stories, imagination and the small moments that make life shine.
