Hi friends,
Just popping in for a quick and exciting announcement:
Mari in the Margins, my middle grade novel in verse (and doodles) is now available for preorder from
! AND…the first 100 people to preorder will receive a small, original “Mari sketch” with their book. You can get a glimpse of me working on the drawings in this instagram reel.Who would enjoy Mari in the Margins? Well, it’s a middle grade novel, but it’s a story that can appeal to a wide range of readers. Anyone (any age) who enjoys verse novels, for one. But also anyone who’s ever struggled to figure out where they fit in their corner of the world or what unique gifts they have to offer. It’s for anyone who can relate to feeling overlooked or who’s worried about being forgotten. Anyone who likes classic stories about family, friendships, and the awkward years of middle school. But really, Mari in the Margins is a story for anyone who can relate to normal people—especially young people—overcoming everyday challenges that help them to become who they are.
If that’s you or someone you know, consider ordering Mari in the Margins today!
Oh my gosh, I just connected this-- I was at the Square Halo Books Conference in Lancaster, PA, this past weekend & got to see Carrie Givens talk! I knew Bandersnatch rang a bell! Ordering your book for my niece ☺
Such exciting news! I'm looking forward to reading your novel!
