So happy to finally be able to share the cover to my debut graphic novel, Atana and the Firebird!
If you enjoy a story with magic, mermaids, the power of friendship, and just a teeny tiny dash of angst, this is for you!
Pre-orders are open NOW. You can get this anywhere books are sold (including your local bookstores!) The book will be available in stores November 7th. ✨
It's been one year since ATANA AND THE FIREBIRD was released! It's still a little surreal see this story out in the world, in the hands of readers from so many different countries, when for so long it only existed in my head and in these little sketches scattered across my various sketchbooks. Thank you to everyone who has read this book, picked up a copy, or recommended it to a friend. Thank you to all the librarians and booksellers for your support and enthusiasm. I wouldn't be able to do this without you all.

Thank you for writing this, it's a wonderful story and the art is so so lovely ✨✨ your characters just feel so warm and I love how you have adults interacting with children in a way that makes me feel so safe and kind
