We're thrilled to have had the honour of talking with @ddnavabooks to celebrate the release of her debut rom-com, The Truth According to Ember. 💜 @eternal_books unitedbypop.com/books/danica…

From seeing Divergent and wondering if I could ever write a book someday, to being named a @PublishersWkly Flying Start for my own dystopian novel.
What a difference a decade makes.

"An empire that thrives on making us invisible and disappearing us means that we do need very active efforts to amplify these diverse narratives because there's a very real impact on policy. And sovereignty extends to our stories."

Can't believe I get to do this! House of Monstrous Women finally has a cover! 🥹💜♥️
The creeping vines, the bold colors, it's an absolutely beautiful nightmare. And she fully releases on August 2025 with @BerkleyPub!

Colby Wilkens, “I believed what I was told” is not a valid excuse for falsely claiming Cherokee identity in the year of our lord 2024. It is well known that many white families pass down fabricated stories of a Cherokee ancestor.

There’s a piece of the Colby Wilkens story that I feel is missing so far: the way she has impacted victims of domestic violence, specifically Native victims. I don't want to speak over BIPOC authors sharing their perspectives, only to add an example to the conversation. 🧵

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show had no Native representation despite promising inclusivity. The show has a history of cultural appropriation. Being inclusive means Indigenous people must be included AND accurately represented. #RepresentationMatters

The Dividing Sky is one of @PublishersWkly’s Best Books of 2024! It’s so surreal to see my book alongside so many other amazing novels. Thank you for this honor!

My thing with the whole Colby Wilkens drama is she lied about being registered, presented herself as a BIPOC authority while not living an indigenous life, and has taken opportunities away from underrepresented authors. But everyone is silent and afraid she'll expose them.
My second Native romcom comes out July 22, 2024 with Berkley. here is the gorgeous cover illustrated by the incomparable @holoskeart
Loved writing my take on a cowboy romance, reclaiming the genre that has been historically racist & perpetuated harmful stereotypes for decades.
Very thoughtful and honest and insightful

I can't speak for anything except Cherokee, but Cherokee people are very clear about what it means if someone publicly claims a Cherokee identity openly. We have a whole statement on Cherokee Sovreignty and Identity, which I've linked below. 1/9
I’m revealing the cover for my next Native romcom this Wednesday if anyone wants to hang out and scream about it and help boost I’d greatly appreciate it!!! 🎉🎉🎉

My second novel is now available to request on Netgalley and Edelweiss!! #NoOrdinaryLove
