Published Author, Blogger

I started blogging and reviewing books the same year I self published my first novel under the pen name Jennifer Silverwood in 2012. Writing and blogging are what initially opened me to the publishing world. I met Najla Qamber when seeking out my cover designer and our friendship led me to working with her company, Qamber Designs. Through the company I've managed cover projects and picture books for Lauren Blakely, Pippa Grant, and Lindy Ryan. I have blogged and reviewed for Lone Star Literary Life since 2022.
