Dear Treasure Island - In the year 2532, your ruined hotel lies 2,500 feet below sea level in the Gulf of Nevada. Inside is the score of a lifetime—a massive stash of gold, just waiting for someone brave enough to take it. Welcome to INTO THE SUNKEN CITY (HarperCollins). Can we talk?

I had the best time chatting with 7th graders today about writing! They had non-stop questions after my author talk, and I joined their writing club, shared a prompt, and had the hardest time picking a winner bc their writing samples were too good!

I sold another book!! This one is inspired by all the Indian family reunions I went to as a kid (where there was tons of attempted murder!). It’s ridiculous, heartwarming, humorous and the 1st draft poured out of me. I hope y’all love it! PS - For fans of Dial A for Aunties!
