I'm the author of the young adult novels Red Glass (IRA Award, Americas Award, Colorado Book Award, BBYA) and What the Moon Saw (Americas Award Honor, Colorado Book Award, Arizona YA Book Award, BBYA). I grew up in Maryland, then moved around for ten years, making my home in New Orleans, Aix-en-Provence (France), Huajuapan (Oaxaca, Mexico-- where I taught English and did anthropological fieldwork), Newfoundland (Canada), Tucson, and now, Fort Collins, Colorado, where I'm staying put for a while. I live here happily with my husband and toddler son and half-corgi-half-lab. Most days, you'll find me drinking tea and writing novels in a little silver trailer in my driveway. I travel as much as I can-- most recently, to Ecuador and Provence to *research* my books-in-progress, which are part of a travel-adventure series. The first book, The Indigo Notebook was recently released in October 2009. I also have a book for younger readers (ages 8 & up) called Star in the Forest coming out in Spring 2010.
