With less than a week before we all head off to Camp Foster, I thought it’d be fun to see what our main characters are packing!

I still can't believe I'm writing this but here goes—I am excited to announce that I am now represented by the wonderful Emily Forney of BookEnds Literary✨

I've found the best champion for my little worlds in Emily, who shares my love for hilarious but swoony stories (and more).

We’ve got a few of these gorgeous, gorgeous proofs left for #TheGodAndTheGumiho - authors, booksellers, industry bumpkins, let me know if you’re dying to read a snarky K-drama inspired fantasy romance that will rip up your heart

My debut novel, IN THE COUNTRY I LOVE, is coming to Peachtree Teen!

The first YA Iraqi Shia book to hit the shelves ❤️

This book is for the kids who struggle with their faith & those who are desperate to cling on to it. And to the refugees trying to find home—wherever it may be

Mostly jealous of how well Kendrick can write on a deadline

I'M AGENTED✨

OVER THE MOON EXCITED to announce I'm now represented by Emily Forney at BookEnds Literary

Emily's enthusiasm and love for my fantasy romcom amazed me! I'm thrilled to be working with her by my side to bring my cozy magical story (+ more) to the world!

I’m sorry but pricing a new release romance book at $30 is wild behavior and we can’t keep begging readers to shop local and indie when they can get the same book for at least $10 less on Amazon. We’re actually eating our own tails at this point and asking why book sales are down

SO grateful this book is out in the world.

KID-VENTORS tells the true stories of 35 kid inventors & is NOW available anywhere books are sold. Thank you to ALL who made this possible:

THIS IS A HATE CRIME AGAINST ME PERSONALLY! NETFLIX BETTER NOT CATCH ME IN THESE STREETS

Watching You’ve Got Mail for the first time. Movies used to have Nora Ephron’s dialogue. They used to have Greg Kinnear. Movies used to have Tom Hanks being loud.

I love this ngl

Alright and so????? Throw them back in tf this is not for our eyes

my editor, delicately: 'what exactly did you mean here?'

me, sobbing: 'I don’t know'

Thrilled to announce my debut #picturebook MR. CHOW’S NIGHT MARKET is getting published!! The book is a love letter to my time living in Kaohsiung, and I can’t wait for it to be out in the world. Endlessly grateful to agent Emily Forney and editor Elizabeth Lee 🫶

not to romanticize the medical practices of the early 1900s but doctors really fell off when they stopped prescribing visits to the seaside
