Hi and thanks for visiting!
I love traveling, exploring, and immersing myself in other languages and cultures. Most of all, I love weaving the adventures I have and the stories I hear into novels.
My books What the Moon Saw (10 & up) and Red Glass (12 & up) are set mostly in indigenous, rural parts of Mexico, and touch on current immigration issues.
The Indigo Notebook (10 & up) is the first book in a new series - and it's coming in October 2009! It's about a teenage girl, Zeeta, who lives in a different country every year, and encounters mystery, adventure, and love on her travels. In this first book, Zeeta falls for an American boy as she helps him search for his birth parents in the indigenous Ecuadorian Andes.
