A message from Jennifer

Hello Friends!

​

Thank you so much for your interest in me and my books. I wanted to let you know a little more about me, and my life here in Washington, DC.

​

I'm a mom with two girls who are growing too fast! I love taking them into the woods or the mountains with our dog, Timmy--he's a bouncy golden retriever--especially when the sky is that really intense blue, the sunlight piercingly bright, the scenery lush and layered, or frozen in winter with a thick blanket of perfect snow. 

​

Writing is my life. Sometimes people ask how I can sit and write for so many hours, but the truth is that I just love every moment. I feel as if something is coming to life under my fingertips, that I'm carefully creating a world, characters who will act and think and feel emotions all by themselves. 

​

Cooking is my other joy, as is eating! My kids and I are forever in the kitchen, cupcake tins out, the piping bag ready. But I also love to cook for family and friends, dashing around the warm kitchen surrounded by wafts of garlic, herbs, and stocks while the girls lay the table specially with flowers and candles.

​

I hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I loved writing them. Please get in touch. I'd love to hear your stories, too.
