In her own words…

I love being a writer!  I’m so lucky to be able to stay home with my son and do what I love to do.  My twin sister, Julia Devillers, is also an author and we both are constantly amazed and excited about our careers.  (No, there’s no jealousy – we cheer each other on!) 

When I was a teacher, I tried to make the subject I was teaching really interesting.  I believed that kids should not have to be bored in school.  I want to do the same thing now in my writing - create books that don’t put anyone to sleep!  Seriously, I hope people really enjoy reading my work and learning new things. 

More about Jennifer:

I love reading, drawing, playing piano, napping, talking way too much on the telephone, scrapbooking, and - most of all - being with my family.  (Special thanks to Robin, Amy, Julie and Greg for their support!!
