Owen Lach Writes
Lach


Hi!
I’m Owen.
In the shadows of the PNW, there lurks a queer artist, gamer, and best-selling author. His name is Owen Lach, and he’s driven by a passion for the written word.
He’s crafted tales of queer love and adventure, delving deep into the worlds of YA fiction, science-fiction, and romance. But when the words don’t come, he escapes into the pages of books from queer, femme, trans, and POC authors or loses himself in the vibrant worlds of anime and video games. For Owen, the stories are everything, but they’re not his only love.

Jack’s on Fire
A Modern Queer Fairy Tale
Amazon’s #1 New Release in Teen & YA LGBTQ+ Fiction
What if you were a queer teenage musician outed by his vengeful ex-boyfriend and not a fairy tale princess trapped in a castle tower? What if your wicked stepmother was your ordinary, thoughtless, uncaring mother? What if your fairy godmother was your older brother? What if your Prince Charming was captain of the JV soccer team? Maybe you’d be forgiven for not realizing you were living in a sort of fairy tale.
Faced with the impossible choice of staying home to risk being sent away to Father Sullivan’s special school for exceptionally happy boys or moving in with his older brother in California, 16-yr-old Jack Martin leaves behind everything he knows in Minneapolis to go to San Francisco. He finds himself at a new school with new friends and the freedom to be himself. Then sparks fly when Jack meets Damon, his Geometry tutor (and captain of the JV soccer team.) But Jack wonders if Damon feels those sparks, too. And does their budding friendship have a chance to become something more?
Jack’s On Fire is a heartwarming, modern, queer fairy tale about friendship, chosen family, and young, queer love perfect for fans of Heartstopper. Sure, there aren’t any fairies or wands. But what else would you call it when everything starts magically going your way?

They plan an unlikely heist to earn their way over the wall, escaping Bolvar before serving their mandatory five years in the Bolvar Union Defense Force. But Adan doesn’t know he possesses a secret talent that no one has seen in the five centuries since the First Explorers colonized Neska.

From My Blog

Happy Pride Month from Jack and Damon
In honor of Pride Month, here’s a short excerpt from Jack’s Ever After: Another Modern Queer Fairy Tale coming 11 July 2023 from Jetspace Studio.

Jack and Damon Are Back in Jack’s Ever After
When my publisher asked me to write a sequel for Jack’s on Fire, I immediately said yes.

Let’s Take a Road Trip
I’ll be honest. I love a good road trip. So, naturally, I included one in Broken Valley.

Broken Valley and My Return To Neska
There’s something extraordinary about returning to a work you previously created, especially when writing a sequel.
