ABOUT
Jen Zern is a freelance writer, novelist and blogger living and taking lunch orders on magical Martha's Vineyard. She's a native Manhattanite, a recent Los Angeleno and a wearer of many hats - she's been a graphic designer, a rock singer, a set dresser, a photographer's assistant, a dog walker and a hardcore fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. One of these hats led to an illustrious career in fanfiction, which in turn led to an irrational desire to write stories about her own characters. And to stop wearing hats. Hats don't do her any favors.
Jen is represented by Brandi Bowles of Foundry Literary + Media, NYC.
