A beautiful review for A Dupatta Is...
If you haven't gotten a chance to read, please request it at your library or consider buying a copy!
If you've read it, and can spare a few minutes, I'd love a review on GR, Amazon and/or B&N

This is the year y'all! This is year I'm going to be a published MG author!

Think Bend it Like Beckham, but with Pakistani Cricket + throw in a patriarchal uncle!

Just two sleeps before the release of Friday Fun, I thought it would be cute to doodle a mini-me and my over-the-top excitement! Also, it’s illustrated by @anooshasyed.com (a dream come true) and my publisher is amazing @littlebeebooks 🎈

My current and first “Daily Log” book. Lots to do but small steps, taken regularly, are making me feel like although it will be slow, there is some progress everyday and I’m grateful for it!

Sometime you just need to surround yourself with things that make you happy and wait (and pray) for the storm to pass… all the while figuring out your role and reminding yourself about why you do what you do
