Some facts, some or all of them true.

Jenn Ashworth was born in 1982 in Preston. She studied English at Cambridge and Creative Writing at Manchester. She is now Head Librarian in a Prison, a mother to a feral daughter and a collector of cacti.

Her first novel (a story about a woman who built a hot-air balloon in her garden shed) went missing with a stolen computer in 2004. If anyone knows where it is, she doesn't want it back - although an extract from it won the Cambridge University Quiller-Couch Prize for Creative Writing in 2003. 

In 2006 an extract from her second novel, A Kind of Intimacy, won second prize in a national competition: The Enigma of Personality. This novel is the story of Annie, an overweight woman, addicted to self-help books and convinced she's seen her new neighbour somewhere before.

Jenn (comforting, but strange, this writing in third person) has now started work on another project, and continues to write little lying autobiographies for her own amusement. She might write about the creation of the new thing in the blog. Perhaps.
