The Author
Jennifer Garcia’s (aka Forbes Arnone) lifelong love for reading and writing was put aside for many years while she made her way in the world and nurtured her young family. Originally from Boston, she currently resides in Los Angeles with her husband, two sons, and two dogs. Even though she is older, and life never seems to settle, she’s finding her way while attending college full-time in pursuit of a B.A. in English Literature. She also runs a business, and is still caring for her family. Believing she can do it all, with the help of her family, she worked on her first novel during the late hours of the night while balancing the rest of her life during the day. Her hard work paid off, as her first novel, My Mr. Manny, was released August 2013 and her first novella, In My Mother’s Footsteps, was released July 2013.

Jennifer, enjoyed reading about you and your journey to writing. We have a lot in common. I lived in LA, ran an international business and raised a son too…..plus trying to write. However, because we were always on tour and enjoyed a weird life-style (husband and son also in the same business), writing came in fits and starts. In the end I had to wait until I semi-retired to really get to grips with it all…..so at least you are still young and have lots of time and books ahead of you…I am a little late in the game. Good luck and lots more wonderful books!
Oh, how exciting! Yeah, trying to do it all can be overwhelming sometimes, but I enjoy it.
And you know it’s never too late to get in the game!! 🙂
So glad you stopped by, thanks so much!
