📣 Character Art Alert! 📣

New commissioned art of SOFIA!! 🌸

We’re taking a ride back to 1995 when my debut novel, A River Like Mine, launches next summer ❤️ Art by bestie applestars.ig over on Insta ❤️

My first published poem is coming soon! Be sure to keep an eye out for it and so many other wonderful shorts and poems about The Prom 🌸

“A RIVER LIKE MINE is an upmarket/literary thriller that checks all the boxes. Not only is it brilliantly constructed, but it's a darn good read, too. You could teach it in an English class, but you don't need a Ph.D. to understand it.”

My first mini review until the author creates the endorsement blurb 🥹

John and Sammy 🕊️

A beautiful character commission from a wonderful friend @naomifranq who will be providing artwork for the book cover later this year 🥰💕

John and Sammy are part of the ensemble cast of A River Like Mine, a multi-generational literary thriller debuting next summer ☺️ I’m so excited for readers to meet them!
