Jenni Stand

Jenni Stand lives in Texas and is achieving her lifelong dream of becoming a published author. She was born and raised on Prince Edward Island in Canada, and she now lives in Texas with her husband, daughter, and slightly spastic dog. She has always wanted to be a writer, partially due to being surrounded by everything connected with Anne of Green Gables and Lucy Maud Montgomery and partially due to her love of reading. Growing up, she always had her nose in a mystery book, whether it was Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys or Trixie Belden. Plus, the eighties were the best decade for some of the best mystery series on television. Lately she’s been enjoying Agatha Christie. It’s fun getting to read her books for the very first time.

After years of trying to write a book without success, Jenni was one of the earliest students of Ellie Alexander’s Mystery Writing Masterclass. Since joining, Jenni wrote her first book, “Mad Money & Murder: A Pond Investigations Mystery”. She is about to publish the second book in the series titled, “Death is in the Cards”, to be released on February 18th, 2025. Jenni is already working on the third book of the series titled, “Sage’s Bluff”.  If she doesn’t have a pen in her hand, it’s usually holding either a crochet hook or a knitting needle instead.

Jenni is an Affiliate Member of the Mystery Writers of America.
