Hi There!
Avid pun maker, coffee consumer and attempted writer. An aspiring wannabe author from the city of Derby.
Hi I’m Jenny. I studied Creative Writing and American Studies at Hull University where my passion to write became the prominent driving force in my life and I am currently chasing my dream of having my stories in people’s personal libraries.
I’ve decided to take on my first serious writing project and I figured I’d share my journey on the internet to reach out to as many people as possible, to gain inspiration, and to finally put some of my stories out there into the world.
I’m 28 years old and have currently self-published a collection of short stories around mental health for children, the background of which you can read here. I am currently in the process of writing the first draft for a fantasy series which I cannot wait to share.
Author Inspiration
My inspirational authors list include:
- Leigh Bardugo
- JRR Tolkien
- Oscar Wilde
- CS Lewis
- Arthur Conan Doyle
- James Patterson
- Cassandra Clare
- Ian Livingstone
- Steve Jackson
- Scott Lynch
This list is by no means complete and continues to grow all the time! Especially since I’ve recently started to read more Sci-fi.
My Favourite Books
Mental Health Short Stories
The Girl Who Took a Rocket to the Moon & Other Stories is a collection of 7 short tales for kids and adults alike. Each one takes a look at a different aspect of mental health or emotion in the hope of getting everyone talking about the subject at a much younger stage whilst at the same time, enjoying these slightly surreal and other-worldly stories.
