edit data

Born in Emington, Illinois in 1982, I became interested in writing and reading in junior high, but really, writing became a passion of mine in high school when I enrolled in my Senior year AP English class. I was pushed to be creative, and I realized that I wanted to continue to express myself through words. I decided to continue my writing education at Illinois State University in which I received my Bachelors degree in English in 2007.

Jacob’s Quotes

“What she was finding also was how one book led to another, doors kept opening wherever she turned and the days weren't long enough for the reading she wanted to do.”
