It is with great joy that I announce my first young adult science-fiction book is NOW AVAILABLE through Tapas Media!

For Lindy Derosa, being the daughter of a mad scientist isn’t much fun. When her father was arrested for stealing cryogenic freezing technology in Trongodia, she was forced to immigrate from Asia and stay in Seattle with her Uncle Bruce—or rather, stay at the boarding school he put her in. This humdrum life at boarding school is left far behind, however, when Lindy discovers her father’s secret laboratory and the scientific legacy he left behind. Lindy will uncover the ugly conspiracy behind the mysterious plane crash that killed her mother, and find out that everyone in her family might be a little crazier than she ever realized. A bright young woman, Lindy knows that when life gives you a super-villain origin story… you roll with it.

Has anyone heard of ROUGH DRAFT? It's a word processor for writers who have a hard time getting a first draft down, because it doesn't let you delete anything. It will strike through words, and when you want to export it, you can have it delete all the strike throughs, but in the meantime, you just embrace the writing process and keep moving. It doesn't really suit how I write, but it seems like something someone around here would benefit from...

Workflowy.com is the best to-do list (or just LIST app) out there. It will revolutionize the way you keep track of things. I never thought I would have my story ideas, professional contacts, to-do list, and reading list 2011-2016 in one place, but this makes it easy.

NEWS:

For the past few months I've been writing for an experimental literary project that has just been released in the Apple App store with my lead story "Scavenger Hunt" and others I've written. H0_0KED is Silicon Valley's answer to fiction: "bite-sized stories told in the form of chat conversations, and delivered one message at a time."

It's very different, and has been a unique challenge to me as an author trying to fit this concise, unconventional format. What is the vision behind this project? I think H0_0KED says it best itself: "We love reading, just like you, but we know it can get BORING when stories are too long."

My work with the H0_0KED team has opened doors for me, and I am very grateful for the opportunities that have come from this.
