Jennifer Thé (Tay) is an Asian American fiction writer and copy editor. She started writing at the age of nine on a blue Brother typewriter in her grandmother’s attic. Her love of typewriters and fear of attics would later inspire an entire novel.
Jennifer graduated summa cum laude from the University of Kentucky with degrees in journalism and theater. Through the University of Chicago Graham School, she studied manuscript editing with an emphasis on The Chicago Manual of Style. Presently, she is a mentee in the Writers House Mentor Initiative.
Once upon a time, Jennifer was a HarperCollins freelancer, a slush-pile reader, an adjunct instructor, a magazine coeditor, and a reporter/anchor for the NPR and CBS affiliates in her hometown of Lexington, Kentucky. She lives with her family in New England on a small farm surrounded by woods, next to a cemetery.
Jennifer is represented by Helen Lane of the Booker Albert Literary Agency. Her gothic horror novel, the one about a typewriter and an attic, is currently on submission.
