Just a reminder that I’ll be sharing a creepy tale (along with my fellow women writers and book lovers) at The Very Scary Story Jam in Oaks, PA (suburban Philadelphia). The main pavilion will feature a crackling fire, refreshments, and a solid afternoon of entertainment. Hope to see you there!
I’m very pleased to 📣 announce I’ll be teaching 2 sessions and critiquing manuscripts at this year’s ✍🏻 Philadelphia Writing Workshop ✍🏻 on November 23rd. Sign up for an all-star cast of teachers and agents!

It’s official! I’ll be at NoVa TEEN Book Festival on March 30th! If you’re in the Northern Virginia/ DC area, come on out! They’ve got a fabulous lineup of authors, including my fellow Swoon Squad members, Katy Upperman (KISSING MAX HOLDEN, THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF US, HOW THE LIGHT GETS IN) and Olivia Hinebaugh (THE BIRDS, THE BEES, AND YOU AND ME).
The event is free and full of terrific workshops, as well as overflowing with books and amazing authors! I’d love to see you there!
