Books

I write novels that draw on my career as a climate communicator and use speculative elements to explore love, friendship, and family. If a story can reexamine the past to illuminate the present, I’m in.

THE BOOK OF HOURS is a 2026 RevPit winner that asks the question: How far would you travel for love? Following the story of a middle-aged woman who accidentally time-travels into her 22-year-old body and 1999 Paris, it will resonate with fans of Rebecca Serle’s Once and Again and Emma Straub’s This Time Tomorrow.

If you’re an agent looking for a dual-timeline upmarket debut with romantic and speculative elements, I’d love to send over some pages!
