Friends, I am pleased to announce that In the Serpent’s Wake is finally out in the world. It took me four years to write, so it should take you at least that long to read… just kidding! I hope. But I do recommend reviewing Tess of the Road, if you’ve forgotten who’s who and what’s what. Serpent is a sequel, and may require a bit of grounding in the first book.

This being a time of plague, alas, I am not going on tour or making in-person appearances. However, there are a few on-line events coming up that I’d like you to be aware of. I will add to this list if any more come up.

12 February, 7pm Eastern/4pm Pacific — Virtual book launch, in conversation with my friend Fran Wilde, hosted by my friends at Children’s Book World in Haverford, PA. Check here for details on how to watch. I believe they broadcast it on their Facebook Page and on YouTube.

17 February, 7:30 Eastern/4:30 Pacific — Penguin Teen Canada Trivia Night! Come as a solo player or a team of up to four, and enjoy a cozy evening of your Canadian YA faves – Sheena Kamal, H. N. Khan, Nathan Page & Drew Shannon, and yours truly – talking about our books and trying to stump you with VERY HARD QUESTIONS. A good time will be had by all! Get free tickets at Eventbrite.

23 February, 8 Eastern/5 Pacific — Come see me in discussion with the good folks at Words & Whimsy Book Club. Words & Whimsy is a private book-lovers’ community on Facebook, and you must join the community to attend the event.

That’s it for now! More to come, I hope!
