It’s July 9th, which means it’s the launch day of my debut novel, Speak the Ocean. It’s been a long road here. StO started as a gender-bent YA with a boy who couldn’t speak because he was always wearing a snorkel. It wasn’t a horrible idea, but it didn’t spark anything in me, either. It

Happy Friday night/nearly Saturday morning, Aledan MERFOLK! I’m happy to announce I just wrote the final scene in the first draft of SPEAK THE OCEAN! It took far longer than I ever expected to write this draft, but I’m hoping it’s stronger than most of my first drafts. I can see plenty of weak places
