Author Interview - A. R. Taylor
Author of Jenna Takes The Fall.
“…a darkly humorous, at times absurd, coming-of-age novel that examines the life of a young woman who becomes infamous before she becomes anybody at all. At just twenty-four, Jenna McCann has moved to Manhattan from Ohio, landing a job as assistant to prominent New Yorker Vincent Macklin Hull of Hull Industries and their somewhat tacky magazine NewsLink.”
