Killer Women

The Killer Women Podcast: Bestselling suspense author Danielle Girard hosts conversations with the women who create crime fiction’s darkest and most nuanced characters. How do these women balance real life, of providing primary care in their homes and communities— as mothers, wives, sisters and daughters, while simultaneously living for months, or years, inside the heads of dark villains, entangling protagonists in harrowing circumstances, and giving readers not just a great story but an honest portrayal of what each of us is capable of when pushed to her limit..?

Debut author Jenna Satterthwaite's MADE FOR YOU: AI, reality TV, & a bone-chilling murder mystery

Killer Women

07/02/24 • 41 min

Born in the Midwest, Jenna Satterthwaite grew up in Spain, lived briefly in France, and is now happily settled in Chicago with her husband and three kids.

Jenna studied classical guitar at the Conservatorio Profesional de Música de Zaragoza and earned her BAs in English Lit and French at Indiana University. Now she works a 9-5 style office job where she types many emails while drinking many cups of excellent coffee. Once upon a time, Jenna moonlighted as a singer-songwriter in folk band Thornfield.

In the winter, you can find Jenna obsessively and cozily pounding out novels on her laptop by the fireplace. In the summer, you can find her getting sunburned at the pool with her kids, vaguely wondering how a novel is even written.

She loves sushi, reading in her natural habitat (aka her bed), and women taking back their power. Made For You is her debut novel.
