Jess G.

Life's too short not to find a good book and share it with friends.
What I do when I'm not in the library:
I crochet odd things like Tom Baker Dr. Who scarves, scribble in my journal, run in the park and have fun rock climbing occasionally.
My passion:
I love stories. Reading them and writing them. Especially middle grade books and poetry.
Something unique about me:
One of my poems rode around on buses in Northern Virginia under the name Jess E. Stork.
