My review of JUDE SAVES THE WORLD on Goodreads
Just finished Ronnie Riley's book JUDE SAVES THE WORLD and it was FABULOUS! Go get yourself a copy or request it at your library.
I already sent my own personal letter, but have also signed this open letter to them. I am a Scholastic author.
literally just finished therapy talking about this. so Iβm taking a social media break.
THE SONG OF US surrounded by other queer novels
Happy National Coming Out Day from Olivia, Eden, and me. Wherever you are in your coming out journey, I hope youβre safe and hope youβre finding yourself in the stories around you.

If your Banned Book Week observances are still focusing on Catcher in the Rye or To Kill a Mockingbird instead of the plethora of books by queer and BIPOC authors being actively banned RIGHT NOW, then you may want to ask yourself some questions about what you're actually trying to accomplish.
I guess Iβm glad I have answers for my pain, but it doesnβt get rid of the pain Iβm in.
And today? Thatβs A LOT of pain.
It is really hard being a writer these days. The industry is getting tougher all the time. You can REALLY help authors and books you love by talking about them. Word of mouth is real magic, your voice matters, it's never too small. Share your enthusiasm for books you love. And THANK YOU.
youβve got this!!
One of the best parts of the WGA deal: AI has now hit a brick wall in Hollywood, *and that includes adaptations.*
Based on the deal, AI can't be source material. So if you're a publisher, AI novels or graphic novels or whatever just became that much less appealing because *they can't be optioned.*
fist bump!! ππ»
thank you!!!
oh bless you for all the work you do!! π₯Ήπ
Thank you!! ππ»

Hardcovers of Cool for the Summer and Going Bicoastal sit side by side on a bi flag with a basketed plant in the background. Both book covers are bi-coded in color and feature centrally located girls and both male and female love interests.
Happy Bi Visibility Week! I have two extremely, visibly bi YAs, one set in the "figuring it out" stage and the other one set long after. πππ
