Bio: Jandy received a BA from Cornell, an MFA from Brown in poetry, and another MFA from Vermont College in writing for children and young adults. It was at Vermont College, under the tutelage of amazing mentors, where the whole marvelous world of children’s literature opened up for her. That was her inspiration to work around the clock on a first novel after previously being devoted solely to writing poetry. For the past twelve years Jandy has been a literary agent with Manus & Associates Literary Agency. Before agenting, she worked in theater, doing everything from making palm trees out of styrofoam to stage managing to dramaturgy. She loves teaching, and plans to do more in the near future. She has taught creative writing at Brown and other places, and gives lectures and workshops on various subjects at writer’s conferences all over the country throughout the year.
