Jennifer Bartak was born in Winnipeg and moved to Vancouver BC during the sixties. As a survivor of a violent crime, she has gone through many challenges in her life, especially where relationships are concerned. Her biggest accomplishment was the completion of her first thriller novel The Gatekeeper which she hopes to have published soon. Besides the book, she has written three blogs which addressed several topics of interest and has contributed to her local paper. She also has several articles published online and works as an intern for the popular fashion online magazine Style.ca where she writes about fashion and beauty for men, women and the home. Although her dream is to become a novelist, she also hopes to help people who are dealing with relationship issues.
