MORIBUND Nominated for a Cybils Award!
Dear Readers, THANK YOU! I'm so excited that MORIBUND has been nominated for a Cybils Award in the YA Speculative Fiction category. But even more importantly, just knowing that you love MORIBUND and all things CIRCUIT FAE makes my dark heart so happy. When I started writing about Syl and Rouen's adventures, I was told by some people that queer fiction wouldn't sell, that it wasn't a smart career decision, that, if only I wrote about straight, white, cisgender characters, I'd

GIE Reads: Snowsisters
Today. I'd like to talk about SNOWSISTERS, a contemporary coming-of-age, coming out LGBTQ YA novel by Tom Wilinsky and Jen Sternick that caused a bit of a stir on GoodReads when it first came out. But first, a brief synopsis (from GoodReads): High school students—Soph, who attends private school in Manhattan, and Tess, a public school student who lives on a dairy farm in New Hampshire—are thrown together as roommates at a week-long writing conference.

Praise for DETHRONED
The reviews are coming in for DETHRONED, and they are awesome! But don't take my word for it. Here are just some of the highlights Description For eighteen-year-old Rouen Rivoche, being a fairy princess isn’t about fancy parties and happily ever afters. Rouen’s people are the dark Fae whose powers of lightning, thundersnow, and all things Winter make them cold, severe, and 100% intolerant of rebellion. Too bad being a rebel is in Rouen’s blood. Against tradition, she’s teamed
