So here’s the thing, I need to change things a bit. As most of you know, last summer, my second book was picked up by Dial Press!

What I didn’t anticipate was lots of starts and stops to the New York City Public School System, which meant constant scheduling and childcare shifts for our family and ultimately, my work life. Lately, we’ve found our ground and I’m thankful for a whole heck of a lot, but still, quite often, like most mothers in a pandemic, I find that I’m biting off more than I can chew.

It became my baby when I was raising my own baby, and I’m deeply invested in watching it grow along with me and us much longer than it already has.
