A lifelong voracious reader, Kate Jennings tried to instill her love of books in her children while growing up in rural Indiana. Kate was an English major in college and taught at the junior high level for a short time teaching English and literature. She always knew that she would write a novel, eventually. That opportunity came when she was recovering from knee surgery and needed an outlet to keep boredom from setting in. Wherever she goes there is a book on her person and her car has a supply of audio books on board. She is now working on a series of four linked books the first to be ready in early 2011, with the remaining three to be released at two per year. Check out her website at katejenningsauthor.com. She would love to hear comments about her debut book, The Missing Heiress.
