Jennis Slaughter (1958-still kicking) was born in Leesburg, Florida and had a fairly uneventful childhood. Could be found sitting up in a Magnolia tree reading or tramping through the woods. Had (and still has) an overactive imagination so writing seemed to be the perfect outlet (since Hollywood didn't call). She prefers writing mysteries and drama and has been called 'The Angst Queen' more than once. She is a firm believer in happy endings and true love.
