We had the extraordinarily good fortune to snag Jennifer for an event at the library.
Here's the room set up:
There's a dessert table
There's a readalike table where people could check out books from our collection
There's a book buying table
And finally there was Jennifer
A little blurry and then before the room filled up.
*************
She talked about her writing process
How long it takes her to write a book: her first couple of books took a few short weeks while her last book look almost a year to write. She also revises each day before she writes.
Her rejections and how to get over rejections: best tip: as soon as you start query letters for one project, immediately start another project so when the rejections letters come - and they will - it won't hurt as bad because it's not the project you're working on right now.
How Raised by Wolves found the official cover - after many drafts with tons of photos, fonts, and colors
Books:
She recently LOVED
Mistwood
Unwritten Word
She adores:
adult urban fantasy
The first supernatural book she read: Matilda
Old favorites from Childhood:
Anne of Green Gables series
Tamora Pierce
Here's a READ poster I made of her with her favorite Spy novels
