Jenny Brown
author : Jenny BrownJenny Brown studied history in graduate school. Her first professional sale as a writer was a biographical piece about Louisa May Alcott's childhood. Years later, her favorite hobby continues to be reading biographies of people who lived in the 18th and 19th centuries. She has earned her living in many different ways: performing as a singer-songwriter in Western Massachusetts and Nashville, writing nonfiction, and, for the past twenty-four years, running a successful small press. She lives in rural Western Massachusetts.\n\nJenny's characters are often outcasts or rebels. Her heroes have a long way to go before they become the loving men her heroines deserve. Her heroines are strong, adventurous women who take control of their own fate but must do so within the limitations of the society into which they were born. Readers of mainstream historical fiction appreciate that her books are written with respect for the language, history, and culture of the Georgian era in England where they are set.\n\nKeep up with her on her webpage and blog that you'll find at at http://www.jennybrown.net.
