Brief Author Bio: Jennifer Trinkle is a writer. Before she became a writer, she became a mother. Before she became a mother, she went to culinary school. And before that, she was a librarian, working in the government and nonprofit sectors. She’s lived in eight different states, has been married twice (second time is the charm), and is not particularly fond of Chinese food. At 40, Jennifer has almost let go of her death grip on a misplaced sense of eternal youth. A relatively recent migrant from the East Coast to Berkeley, California, Jennifer has almost fully adjusted to this strange land of temperate summers, incredible produce, and creative ferment. |

Synopsis: Work in Progress
A clue, from A.S. Byatt's poem, Dead Boys:
I am a cold grey house.
In every room a boy
Gestures and halts and falls
Again and again and again,
A boy with his hamster curled
On his trembling extended palm,
Like a rigid ammonite,
'Is he dead, is he asleep?'
And the boy who leaned his head
On my shoulder in a bus.
He slept so deep, he jerked
And lolled as the bus ground on
Like a puppet, like a sack,
But he was warm that week --
My cheek was damp with his warmth --
And five days later cold.
