Hey there! I’ve been MIA from the blog for a looooong time, but I have some exciting new projects on the horizon that I’m very happy to share! The first is this awesome announcement from Publishers Weekly that dropped last week.
That’s right, I’m teaming up with Little, Brown and the incredible Christy Ottaviano to bring you two brand new middle grade books! More to come on that front—and on more books from me that you can read in the meantime—very soon!!

Today’s awesome news is that Rewind has been chosen to be on the 2024 Garden State Teen Book Award ballot for Fiction Grades 6-8.
I’m very excited to be participating in this year’s Gaithersburg Book Festival in Gaithersburg, Maryland. It’s an all-day event on Saturday, May 18, and there will be tons of authors there. We’ll be talking, and signing books, and there are even workshops for kids, teens, and adults. I think it’s going to be super fun!
I hate to be a buzzzzzzzz kill, but we’ve made it to the very last installment of “1993 A to Z.” Which is fine because I was so over talking about the 90s (. . . as if!)
There’s something special about a paperback book, don’t you think? As a kid, my favorite books were always paperbacks. Less stuffy and formal-feeling than those pricey hardcovers, paperbacks were books you could dog-ear, toss in your backpack, and sleep with under your pillow.
