  • Love that Does Not Die with author Jennifer Collins
    2025/01/16
    Jennifer Collins, author, is a retired professor and physical therapist whose professional
    career spanned forty years. She held many titles during those years, but “Mom” was the
    one that brought her the most joy; her close-knit family was the center of her universe.
    Her debut novel, Comfort in the Wings, emerged from Jennifer’s devastating
    experiences with the loss of several immediate family members, including two of her
    three children. Tragedy in her life brought an understanding that seemingly opposite
    feelings - joy and profound sadness or gratitude and anger – can exist at the very same
    moment. Striving to articulate those emotions compelled her to bring a seldom heard
    voice into fiction. Supporting loved ones through chronic illness, substance use, mental
    health struggles and sudden loss, Jennifer was struck by the toll that stigma and
    judgement take on people who are grieving. Her books delve into meaningful
    conversations about these issues without preaching or politicizing highly personal
    issues.
    Encouraged by readers’ response, Jennifer wrote two more books, creating the Love
    That Does Not Die Trilogy. Jennifer enjoys writing about the quest for joy and gratitude
    after grief, especially celebrating signs in nature from lost loved ones or finding healing
    near water. Most recently, the MartinArts Council recognized her as their 2023 Literary
    Arts Award Winner. She also considers herself an advocate for compassion and
    kindness, and volunteers at a hospice home.
    When not writing, Jennifer feels blessed to run a family business alongside her eldest son. For more information about the books go
