Impending Audio and Writer’s Amnesia
It’s finished! The audio of The Lost Art! I’m so excited. Now I’m proofing the audio tracks, and I’m really excited. Natalie Duke did a fantastic job. It sounds exactly like the voice in my head. She hit the right tone so well. Love it. Love, love, love it. I should have it up and […]
Three Reasons I Like Self-Publishing–But Other Routes Have Merit Too

Shouldn’t This Get Easier By Now?
I’m excited! I have a book signing today! And it’s in my hometown, at the Preston Citizen from noon to two. Or three. Depending. But to be honest, I’m also pretty nervous. Shouldn’t this get easier by now? It’s been 10 years (well, nine years and eleven months) since I first ever did a book […]

Hi. My name is Jennifer and I’m a lazy personal groomer. Sometimes I think I need a support group because I absolutely hate doing my hair and makeup.
