The work of the weekend. The work of a lifetime.

I got to hear the great Nobel laureate, Mario Vargas Llosa lecture a few years ago & some of his words have stuck with me including these: writers write because we are dissatisfied with the world. I think about this so much, why I write.

I write the world as it is, to imagine the world as it could be. So much of that imagining is where hope stems from.
We dream.
We imagine.
We believe.
We build.

HOLLOW FIRES is out in exactly 4 months!

It’s a thriller about
• a dead boy
• the danger of toxic lies & the lengths people will go to hide them
• a girl who learns the terrible price of unraveling the truth

So much of my heart is in this book. So many of my fears & sadness but also my hope. My belief in the power of courage that springs from love & kindness. It’s a story dedicated to all those we’ve lost to hate.

You can preorder it everywhere books are sold & for signed, personalized copies please consider my indie faves @wcfbook @57thstreetbooks. ❤️

I hope you’ll love it.

Brown girl plotting things with a very large mug in hand.

Seriously, how cute is this mug?

I’m inviting in 2022 with comfort and joy. Coming off a bleak season of creative burnout, I’m just starting to fall in love with writing again, letting new ideas slowly blossom. Trying to be gentle with this fragile growth.

How are you taking care of yourself in this new year?
