What were you like when you were a teenager?
Were you happy?
optimistic?
An old soul?
Immature?
Maybe you felt like me, and felt sad and alone most of the time...
My goal is to write a super honest, encouraging, vibrant book with the intent to help teens feel less alone in this world. BUT a book that women [and men?!] in their 20's and beyond can enjoy as well!
Right now I'm thinking format would be quick sad or funny, truthful stories about my life and lots of my new "lovely girl" drawings. Think: getting made fun of for being a virgin then 10 years later being told I am strong and impressive for still "waiting". For waiting for the right person. Or not realizing I literally wasn't dumb until 2010. I want to share how to take hurts and turn them into joys.
Ultimately, my goal to make THE BOOK i WISH i had when i was younger. Something easy to read and relate to, something that's visually stimulating! Something RAW and HONEST and not all sunshine and butterflies.
I hope you'll continue to follow this journey with me. I'd love to hear YOUR stories!
- What were YOUR teen years like?!
- What you want to MAKE SURE your children know?
- What do you WISH someone KNOCKED INTO YOUR HEAD!?!

This is awesome, Jenipher! And what a needed book!!!!
For my part, I wish I'd had the perspective to know that not being athletic wouldn't be a big deal the day I stepped away from high school for the last time.
And that I'd never actually need to know trigonometry either....
i love your book idea! i think it's going to be fabulous.
