"I had always wanted to tell this story of the road trip I was forced to go on with my mother and her new boyfriend, but I could never figure out how to do it. Then someone gave me the book True Grit by Charles Portis, about a fourteen year old girl who sets out alone to avenge her father's murder, and something in me changed. I knew I could write it, and I'm just so happy I did." - Jennifer Belle 🦢🍦☀️ SWANNA IN LOVE is available to preorder from the Dead Ink website now!
