Today, I get to announce that SKATING ON MARS is going to be a hold-in-your-hands book!

So happy to be working with Rachel Diebel 🌻 at Feiwel and Friends; and huge thanks to Jessica Mileo - Updates Only at InkWell Management.

Thinking about it this morning: I continue to enjoy reading YA as an adult because it really helps me to remember what makes a moment of empowerment for young people.

I read Poppy and Rye three times!!!!
