I’m THRILLED to announce my next two books will be published by Entangled Teen!
This story has been a piece of my soul for a long time and I can’t wait to share Devica and Nate’s journey with you!

If you know of someone with a recently launched #KidLit book or one that's launching in the next few wks, pls ask them to keep an eye on my #KidLitLaunches threads & post their book info?

I'm going to keep doing these for another few weeks but if they don't seem to be useful, I'll probably stop. 😁

Well, if there's one thing we can do to honour the memory of David Lynch it's to make sure we stay as weird as fucking possible and embrace the deepest strangeness possible in our art. And then use that to shine a light on human darkness at every turn.

We have four more teams headed to Pasadena Humane
today to pick up more dogs and bring them to San Diego. Yesterday, we sent two teams up to help free up space as they deal with the devastating #EatonFire. If you can help, please consider fostering a dog: sdhumane.org/foster.

Totally new to this platform, so probably I should...introduce myself? I'm Marci Lyn Curtis, author of two YA contemporaries--THE ONE THING (Disney-Hyperion), and THE LEADING EDGE OF NOW (KCP), and I just finished a new draft for a YA romantic dramedy/romcom. (Such a fun story!)
