name: Jaimie Leigh McGovern
about: From the age of five, Jaimie knew that she wanted to write. Moving back to her native Long Island, New York, after nearly nine years of working as a nanny in New York City, she returned to her roots, both in location and life ambitions.As a queer woman, Jaimie saw a void in fictitious love stories between two women that had a happy ending, and penned In the Silence to fill an empty space, and allow other women like her to believe in happy endings, even when they sometimes seem impossible.Currently, in between various writing endeavors, Jaimie has resumed her studies in literature at SUNY Old Westbury, focusing on early twentieth-century American female writers.
