Calla taught me so much during the process of writing this novel, among them, to be still and listen. There were moments when I lost her voice completely—so many pauses, so many moments of reflection. The stillness this project required for sure made me a better writer.

Listen to the Girls follows Calla the summer after 7th grade as she tries to come to terms with the news that her favorite teacher has been accused of inappropriate behavior with female students, and as she learns to use her voice to uplift the other girls and tell her own story.

For sure! And for you writing the story to help him to feel accepted.

Oh, are you working on a build right now? I’m working on the Milky Way.

Same, same! It’s such an expensive hobby.

Happy to hear! And so wished I could’ve been there, but meeting you in person was also a highlight of my time in Boston.
