About the Author
Jenny’s story is an inspiration to all would be writers:
Suffering from terminal boredom she thought she’d try her hand at writing. She sent off her first three chapters to a small literary agency, picked at random from the ‘Writers and Artists Yearbook’ from whom she received a short rejection letter. Unperturbed, she took voluntary reduncancy giving three months notice, and set out once again to sell her novel. Not long after she received a note from a prestigious agency, expressing an interest in the rest of the text, which in fact did not yet exist. This was a welcome incentive for Jenny to finish the book. With unbelievable speed a huge auction involving eight publishers followed with HarperCollins managing to close the deal. For a twenty something former NHS Trust worker, this was clearly the stuff that dreams are made of.
‘Working Wonders’ is her fourth novel. Her previous novels - ‘Amanda’s Wedding’, ‘Talking to Addison’ and ‘Looking for Andrew McCarthy’ - have all been bestsellers and film and TV options have been sold.
Jenny lives in London and is working on her fifth novel and a TV series.
