It was so fun to chat with Janny Perez @milegasi on The Latina Mom Legacy podcast about raising bilingual kids, my book journey, & being Colombian. ☺️ Link in bio to the blog post and podcast. Have a listen! And check out the other episodes and her website for more resources for Latina moms.

Excited and honored to share that Feliz New Year, Ava Gabriela! won a bronze medal in the 2021 International Latino Book Awards! Congratulations to all the winners!!

New headshots by @michellenicolephotography with hair and makeup by @luvandlipgloss in honor of my new MG fantasy, THE ENCHANTED LIFE OF VALENTINA MEJÍA, coming from Atheneum/S&S in Spring 2023, about a girl who discovers all her papi’s stories about the mano peluda, madremonte, and patasola are real when an earthquake leaves her and her brother stranded in a strange and magical land.

❤️ It’s been 14 years today since my abuelita went home (almost 3 for my abuelito).

If I’ve been quiet on here, it’s because I’m neck deep in revisions and grading, and trying to remain focused. I’ll be popping in periodically, like today, to share updates or news.
