At the end of 2007, Jen Storer received an Australia Council grant for a novel she has been working on. The novel, a gothic adventure, has since been contracted by Penguin Australia and will be published in 2009. It is entitled The Grim Story of Tensy Farlow and the Home for Mislaid Children.

Whilst working on revisions of The Grim Story, Jen is also writing the sequel to her soon to be released girl’s novel, Tan Callahan’s Secret Spy Files: The Mystery of Purple Haunt. Tan Callahan is also to be published by Penguin and includes hilarious illustrations by acclaimed Australian artist and illustrator, Caroline Magerl.

Jen resides in Studio 54 which for those of us who remember, is a very cool address!
