#WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions TAoK: Okay, so what Irene would change about her life was more about her mami's life, and it actually happened in the book. So, I'm not going to spoil it, just wish me luck on finding a book agent that will champion the manuscript 🤞🏼

A year later, I'm still plugging away on the second pass! I have about 150 pages left (or about 47k words) based on the current total. There's almost no way I'll hit my end-of-year completion goal at this point, but hopefully I can wrap it up within the first couple months of the new year 😤💪

In honor of #hopepit, my why: At the beginning of 4th grade, Hudson came home from school and said that he didn’t really like writing. As someone who has written dozens of first chapters, opening scenes, and poem drafts over the years, I set out to show him just how amazing writing could be. #mg #q

I wrote this book for every anxious kid out there who needs to know that their empathy is a super power. And it all started with this kid. Hear it right from the source! #hopepit #q #mg

#hopepit : if you like a story about a misfit kid with a huge heart, combined with magical worlds and mythical creatures, with hopeful environmental and science-as-the-solution themes, plus tools to help with anxiety, this will be the book for you. Join me on my journey to get it published! #q #mg 🤞

#WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions TAoK: Irene sees herself at least able to be better at controlling her star magic. Otherwise, probably starting high school.

#WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions Ok, I'll be splitting this up for each book. TAoK: When it comes to books inspired by mythology, the biggest ones still are Greek & Norse. So, looking into Puerto Rico & the other islands in the Caribbean, I decided to write a book on Taíno Mythology.
