I can’t begin to describe how meaningful this Honor is…and on this book, which I wrote at my daughter’s bedside over the course of 21 rounds of chemotherapy. STRONGER AT THE SEAMS is my debut YA novel, and I will forever be grateful to everyone who helped make this book—and this honor—happen. 💛🎗️💛

Day-old coffee, reheated in a microwave.

Perfectly fine or hell no?

My daughter made Top 60 in Original Spoken Word Poetry, in a speech about a topic painfully close to her heart: childhood cancer.

C, I am so proud of you. Keep fighting, girl. Keep bringing awareness.

Be the change, baby. 🎗️

She won Outstanding Young Chemist!!!! So proud of my girl. Her compassion and heart, mixed with her work ethic and intelligence, will make her unstoppable. Take that, effing brain tumor. 🎗️ 💪

We did a shoot right after my daughter was diagnosed, before treatment began. I cherish those photos. There is so much love and pain in them. We also did the pose with middle fingers! Can’t find now, but here are a few favorites from early treatment days. 💛 Every day is hard, even still. F 🎗️!

So much for freedom of speech. 😡

LOL - thank you @annemariepace.bsky.social for pointing out that I was giving away my ending. 😂

Still…these truly are the most satisfying two words to type!!!

I'm pretty lucky that I have a couple fabulous houses that have supported me well (and I won the editor lottery), but this still cracked me up. 😂

Prayer request (or however you send love) for this amazing family, who just lost Caroline, their 11yo brain cancer warrior. She’s the little one in this pic—the big one is my own brain cancer warrior. 💔
