Jennifer Anne Kogler, 28, lives in California, where she was born and raised. She’s wanted to be a writer since she was old enough to hold a pencil.
While a student at Princeton University, Jennie spent a semester studying in London, traveling through most of Europe (including an almost fatal boat ride to Inishmore off the coast of Ireland) in between classes. After graduating with a B.A. in English and delivering a graduation speech with her twin brother Jeremy, she returned home, determined to fulfill her career dream of becoming a fulltime writer.
Taking up residence in her old bedroom she revised the novel that she’d written as her senior thesis at Princeton. By the end of the summer following graduation Jennie sent her revised manuscript, Ruby Tuesday, off to literary agencies. Two months later, she had a two-book deal with HarperCollins.
Jennie is a longtime fan of the L.A. Dodgers. Her second novel, The Otherworldlies, is her first “official” foray into fantasy. She currently attends Stanford Law School and is at work on a sequel to The Otherworldlies and an as-yet-untitled new book.
