Author, columnist, All Around Good Guy…Jenifer Brown has been writing since, well, forever.

Two-time winner of the Erma Bombeck Global Humor Award (2005 & 2006), humor columnist for The Kansas City Star (winning the Missouri Writer’s Guild 2008 Conference Award for Best Newspaper Column), and Saturday Featured Blogger for Mom2Mom KC, Jennifer has been out to prove since childhood that being a smart-ass can, indeed, be considered “making a living.”

When not rolling her eyes and thinking up news ways to incorporate the words, “Ch-yeah,” “Puh-lease,” and “Hell-o!” into her writing, Jennifer is hard at work on her young adult fiction. Her debut novel, Hate List (Little, Brown), was released September 2009. Jennifer writes and lives in the Kansas City, Missouri area, with her three wonderful kids, adorable hubby, two cats, a boxer pup, and the best basset hound baby anyone could ever ask for.
