About the author

Jennifer Steen

14 books22 followers
A woman of 29 years, Jennifer Steen lives in Leander TX, with her husband and three children.

She enjoys watching historical documentaries, eating mint chocolate chip ice cream, talking about making homemade soap (even though she's too lazy to do it anymore), playing the marimba (once a year for church), tickling her kids, driving in her brand new cherry red car, and thinking about those coconut shrimp they used to sell at the Fisherman's Wharf in Monterrey, California.

If you find this disturbing, then you should probably know that this is far better than what she used to type into the text boxes for personal website crap. Now her prospective occupation is no longer bag-lady, or withered dreg of society, but author. Some would argue the difference is mute but we (I'm using the royal we here, in case anyone is afraid I'm talking to myself or to my imaginary friends) are quite satisfied that this is a move in the right direction.

Seriously now...I was just trying to fill up this whole space.

She is currently pursuing a degree in Creative Writing at Southern New Hampshire University, and hopes to continue her recent successes in offering her oddly-satisfying fiction to the public.

Despite its brevity, "Curious Curses" manages to be a number of things: a cat-centered story about a stray who wanders into a fairground and overhears a dark prophecy given to a rebellious teen; a second-person narrative, making the reader the protagonist and thus the cat; and just a fun piece of flash fiction. Forewarning, though: the story is a bit of a tease - the author hits you with a "to be continued" right when you want to know more. But that's not entirely a bad thing, because it means there's more on the way.
