Just wrote this in a bio for @SCBWI and thought I’d share #MSWL ✌️

Twisty, absurdly funny, fast-paced psychological thrillers, with #ownvoices teen POC, attacking ideas of identity, paranoia, plunder. Think 'Ripley' meets 'Get Out.' #MSWL #YA

#MSWL: Spiritual sci-fi, like Arrival or The OA, with diverse characters for young adults. 🙏👊🌀

My #MSWL is #diverse. I'm not here to help. I'm here cuz my liberation is bound to yours. Publishing needs to include all voices. #OwnVoices
