Junior Authors was started by Senior Author, Publisher and Empowerment Speaker JaQuan Postell. JaQuan has written 5 books, a middle school curriculum and published many more. She has more than 12 years of experience in formal education ranging from Elementary School to High School and over 15 years of experience facilitating programs for “At Risk” children, adolescents, and young adults. Her 5th book Stuck in the Middle, is an in-class relationship building program for middle school students. The Stuck in the Middle curriculum is currently being facilitated in Montgomery, and Prebble County middle schools. JaQuan's goal is to publish as many young writers as possible. It is her prayer that Ohio becomes the training ground on how to creatively inspire, train and lead young writers to publishing success.
