Jennifer Roy: Hello, my name is Jennifer Roy. My name is short, just three letters, R-O-Y, and that makes me happy because when I was growing up, my name was not so easy to pronounce. I grew up as Jennifer Rozines, R-O-Z-I-N-E-S, and nobody could say my last name. So when I married Gregory Roy, my life got a little easier and so did my name.
A neat thing about having the name Rozines was that my twin sister, Julia, also had that name. And my twin sister also grew up to be an author. Her name is Julia DeVillers. So even though our last names are different now, Roy and DeVillers, we both love to write and read books.
