ⓘ About Jennifer E. Smith

From very early on, she knew she wanted to pursue writing even if she never considered it a proper career. During her childhood, she thought growing up and becoming a professional author was as likely as becoming an astronaut or ballerina. As such, she is incredibly lucky to find herself a professional author. Still writing s something that she would still have loved doing even if she never got published. Her first ever piece of writing was when she penned a short story about a horse and a girl when she was in the fourth grade. She would end up winning a creative writing contest held by her school and got a confidence boost for her writing skills. For her win, she got to travel to a writing workshop held at the University of Illinois, which is where she really caught the writing bug.
