Jennifer Savran Kelly (she/they) is an author and bookbinder based in Ithaca. She writes primarily fiction, with a focus on sexuality and gender, including gender roles and identity. Her debut novel, Endpapers, has been recently published by Algonquin Books. Jennifer also works as a production editor at Cornell University Press.

“The kernel of the idea for Endpapers came from a fascinating bit of trivia she learned in a bookbinding workshop. Binders used to sometimes find personal letters hidden under the endpapers of books, where they could never be found unless the book was destroyed. I’d also been wanting to write a queer story, so eventually I put these two ideas together.”
