Hi there! I'm the author of the novels Unseen City, The Mermaid of Brooklyn, and How Far Is The Ocean From Here. My next novel is called Dear Edna Sloane and comes out from Red Hen Press in 2024. I have another novel called Animal Instinct that comes out from Putnam in 2025. I write a free newsletter about writing called How To Get Unstuck, and I also work individually with writers helping them to get unstuck on creative projects, large and small.
