Publishing a book is like stuffing a note into a bottle and hurling it into the sea. Some bottles drown, some come safe to land, where the notes are read and then possibly cherished, or else misinterpreted, or else understood all to well by those who hate the message. You never know who your readers might be. – Margaret Atwood

COMING SOON – My debut children’s book Kuhu Learns to Deal With Life, a middle grade chapter book will be out this year. It will be published by BARE BONES PUBLISHING. Excited about this announcement m here. Happy to share space with fellow authors here.
