Today, for the first time, I walked into a major retailer and picked up something I wrote. This is my local @barnesandnoble where I practically grew up. I’m thankful to the amazing editors at @frictionseries for making this moment possible. Dreams do come true. #amquerying

HUGE thank you to both @mstiefvater and @hollyblack for helping this gorgeous story come to life! Pardon the pun, but it was a dream come true to edit, art direct, and publish alongside the @FrictionSeries team!
Support a great nonprofit and check out the TRC short story I've got in F(riction)'s Dreams issue, out now (yes, I know no one expected any more TRC content from me but @hollyblack tricked me into writing some dream content for a good cause, like the fey creature she is).
