In graduate school, Jennifer Fandel taught both at the university-level and the community, and she also began working in publishing at that time. Her work in the publishing field has been wide-ranging, providing a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to create a book (or any other type of publication) from start to finish. From book development and marketing to writing and editing, she has stood on both sides of the publishing fence–as a decision-maker on the inside and as a writer trying to get her own work published. Her formal experience includes work in children’s publishing, university press publishing, self-publishing, and academic publishing.
Fandel teaches workshops in the community, volunteers for a number of literary organizations, has the occasional privilege of reading her own work for audiences in the St. Louis area, and writes with a lot of fine writers who she is pleased to call friends.
