Some fun virtual events are scheduled for December and I’m so excited to join readers and fellow writers and librairans and teachers and booksellers to chat about books, libraires, and pandemic snack recipies. Thursday, Decmber 2nd at 4pm is Snoqualmie-Isle Library’s Open Book series. Register here:

Then join the Washington Center for the Book via Seattle Public Library on December 15th at 6pm with me and one of my literary idols, Claudia Rowe, for a conversation in celebration of WHAT I CARRY winning the 2021 Washington State Book Award. Claudia is the author of the NYT Best-selling and award-winning THE SPIDER AND THE FLY, and she is a writer with the Seattle Times and most recently PBS’s Crosscut series, where she writes about Education and the Foster Care system. I am equal parts nervous and thrilled to be in conversation with Claudia, join the event here:
