Fall 2023 Books + Life Update

A bookish update + Life between a move

Hi friend!

I know, long time no see 😆. Long story short, I’ve been in the middle of a cross country move from Maryland and Virginia to California. This was also in the middle of our long postponed honeymoon trip overseas (supposed to happen in 2020 but felt more comfortable this year with travel protocols). Here are some photos:

The whole move thing….(in emojis) 🤯📦🧹🥵🌴. I did get to say goodbye to my D.C. bookclub and attend a book event with my @lasmusas hermana (moderated by the fab @lupita.reads) for Patricia Engle’s new book THE FARAWAY WORLD. More photos:

Some exciting new…I have three board books coming out this fall 2023🎉! I wrote a salsa story back in 2021. I received interest in the story only if I was willing to write two more with the music theme….and here we are! Here’s the Publishers Weekly announcement that went out.

The cover reveal will happen this month and the pre-order campaign is launching at the end of March. My publisher is working on a really cool box set edition for the books! Those who preorder will get the boxed set with all three books and other goodies. Afterwards, books will be available to buy individually.
