about me

Hello, my name is Jenna, I'm a Canadian pacifist (yes there is a difference between being Canadian and being pacifist I just happen to be both :p ). I've been seriously writing for about four years now and my book Order and Chaos is three years in the making. I'd prefer not to be spammed but if the pitch is good I'll usually watchlist it. When I can I actively participate on the Women Only forum thread but I do not have the time to spend on this wbsite that I'd like so I'm not on very often. I hope that will not stop you from having a look a my book as it has had great reviews in the past and I'm in the process of editing it for future publication.

I've recently lost all my backings due to an error in the editing process and greatly appreciate any support to help my book "Order and Chaos" Since the event in question I've dropped by 2000 in the polls making me begrudgingly believe those whom I thought were loyal backes may have been inactiv on this website for some time.

Order and Chaos

Jenna Lynn McMahon

"Two perfect little disasters waiting to unleash their miseries on the world in pursuit of the ideal Existence."


Anaxandra Tanner was born in the slums of Existence, orphaned at age eight she was forced to live on the streets with her older brother and infant sister relying only on the charity of strangers and luck to keep from starving, freezing, or being enslaved/imprisoned by the Legion. When the dark under belly of Existence finally claims her innocence she sets onto a dark path delivering her straight to the hands of Chaos.

Prince Kaspar was born under mysterious conditions in the Palace of the Pharaohs where he grew under the watchful eyes of his father Pharaoh Jovan and his beloved nanny Sonja. Kaspar spent his childhood aspiring to join the Legion, like his cousin Cyril and trying to become the most Orderly man he could be while failing miserably when his love of photography and science drag him from his holy path created by the God Order.

Narrated by Chaos the Goddess of War, Blasphemy, Hate, Love, Beauty and Art.

First draft finished and posted. Now in need of editing.

Constructive criticism welcomed.

Enjoy!

Started autumn of 2009

Sorry, please forgive my ignorance with respect to English spelling and phrases. As a Canadian I know I've had a few fights with my American word processing software over the spelling of words. :p I still like this book :) view book

I’ve read to chapter two of your book and so far I can say I liked your first chapter but I felt like you jumped around with respects to narration a bit and it was a little hard to follow for the first couple of paragraphs. The second was good, a chance to see Vinnie as more than just the troublemak... view book

I’ve read the first three chapter of your book and I think your choice of an opening scene is excellent at grabbing the reader’s attention and making them care about Sally early on. Joseph is absolutely awful as he is meant to be but I worry he might be a little over-the-top at times and becomes har... view book

I’ve only just begun reading the first chapter and so far I am interested in your characters and I liked how you opened with the little boy wondering about Homes and blaming his mother for why he didn’t have one but I felt like you dropped the topic of the boy and shifted into narrative summary abou... view book

Chapter 9: Hello, I had planned to finish your manuscript before commenting but it seems if I attempt to finish every book I read for the Women Only Thread I will never finish the list :). I really liked how your story began with Judith struggling to contact Caroline, praying for their safety. Imm... view book
