Biography & Author's Journey
Jen Sincero built her public voice out of a mix of literary training, comic timing, and years spent circling creative work without financial stability. She studied English at Colorado College, where she has said she talked her way off the wait list and found professors who encouraged her writing. After college, she moved through service jobs and band life, experiences that sharpened the irreverent, fast-moving tone that later became her signature. Her first books, the semi-autobiographical novel Don’t Sleep With Your Drummer and The Straight Girl’s Guide to Sleeping With Chicks, came from that earlier world of music, performance, and pop-cultural observation.
