About this item: A query and first fifty pages of a young adult manuscript critique.
Donated by …
Jodie’s been passionate about reading ever since she was a little girl, when she used to climb trees to escape with a favorite book. She now lives and writes in a small town in Pennsylvania with her teenage daughter. Though still an avid reader, she now prefers a comfy chair over the crook of a tree. An unapologetic coffee fiend, she’s even happier if her java comes with pie. Jodie often draws on her background in education and mental health counseling to bring real world experience to her writing. She is a firm believer in the magic of a first kiss, and insists that you should never, ever give up on your dreams. #AlwaysKeepFighting
Her books THE GIRLFRIEND REQUEST releases Fall 2015 and THE SOCIETY releases Spring 2016. Check out her books here.
