Hi! My summer has been dominated by my housing crisis instead of my book release. My landlord sold my house and I have to move across the country because my family can’t secure housing here. Help us get to stability!

I’m honored to see THE FALLEN FRUIT mentioned on @latimes Most Anticipated Fall Books! They said my book "is a heady mix of well-researched historical fiction...reminiscent of both Octavia Butler’s “Kindred” and “The Time Traveler’s Wife.” https://t.co/tVkjihDCDJ
