F.J. Stevens is a creative writer, singer, songwriter, a native Washingtonian with an immense love for her city with a wildly vivid imagination. She spent the better part of the last 20 years in corporate America, until the day that a corporate merger (and a fairly generous severance package) sent her home to her sofa, where she was able to exhale, put up her feet for a while and pen her first novel, the first in a series of gritty urban family sagas, "James Girls". Leveraging on her experiences, and the many interesting characters she's encountered growing up in the inner city of DC; endeavoring into the world of entertainment; navigating through the corporate world in a brown girl's skin and dating in this new modern era of social media where popularity is paramount and dumbing yourself down while turning up is the acceptable norm, F.J. has seen and experienced quite a bit in her day. So, you take a handful of those characters, a few of the more interesting experiences, and sprinkle in some imagination, and you've got a recipe for some seriously entertaining material...or a hot mess. Depending on your taste. Today F. J. wears many hats including that of a doting mother to a beautiful son on the autism spectrum, a dedicated mentor to young at risk girls in her city, a businesswoman, real estate investor and entrepreneur. Each of these roles have their own rich rewards and she is beyond tickled to now add "authoress" to the ring.
