Oh. Wow. So. This will be a super secret screen shot, because this is a skirt Santa is putting in my stocking. I saw it somewhere and HAD to have it.

All women's clothing should include pockets, but a skirt with pockets made from the Marauder's Map?  I had to have it. 

I now own it, but cannot wear it until I am quite surprised to find it Christmas morning. I love being Santa.

Today, in lieu of Screen Shot Sunday (which is totally going to take off, I swear,) I'm posting the cover of my new novel, Antipodes, which publishes Tuesday April 3rd, 2018.

That night, we'll have a party (and cake, of course) at Secret Garden Books in Ballard. Come join us!

Antipodes is a slice-of-life story about ambitious 17-year-old Erin Cerise, whose carefully plotted life suddenly implodes just before her 17th birthday. To rescue her flagging Ivy League prospects, Erin is forced to study abroad on New Zealand’s gorgeous South Island. What began as a social exile becomes much more as Erin experiences cultural clashes and tremendous personal growth through competitive swimming, music, friendship, and--of course--love.
