Abigail Jennings

Abby — who hails from Dallas — is a 4.0 Honors student pursuing majors in both writing and French. She also plays viola in the TCU Symphony Orchestra. When not writing fiction or playing music, Abby lives and breathes French, living in the French House in TCU’s Mabee Hall, working in the modern languages department as a French peer tutor, and in the summer, serving as a French tutor at Concordia Language Villages in Minnesota. One of the individuals who recommended her for the award commented that Abby was willing to take “the kind of sophisticated risk that only the best writers embrace as they develop a sense and command of the possibilities of craft.”
