Today I’m excited to participate in the release day tour of UNBOUND: Stories of Transformation, Love, and Monsters edited by Emily Colin & Madeline Dyer! What do a yogurt-loving mummy, a violinist on the brink, and a medieval pirate queen in love with a ghost have in common?
They’re all featured in UNBOUND—a YA anthology where the weird and wonderful take center stage, and the only constant is that things never stay the same. Unbound releases TODAY (February 15th, 2021) from Five Points Press.
Thank you so much, MTMC, for having me on this tour.

A dull AP English assignment interrupted by the resurrection of a 5,000-year-old mummy. A “boy meets boy meets time travel” tale. An ancient evil summoned from the Scottish moors. A sentient garden turned matchmaker. A troubled teen who rehabilitates monsters. A sinister society where love is punishable by death. A medieval pirate queen in love with a ghost. A demon who rebels against her birthright. A mysterious Power that turns people to stone. A girl who guards the secret behind her best friend’s disappearance. A violinist on the brink who learns to listen to her heart.
The stories in this anthology have one common theme: Transformation. They include international ownvoices perspectives; a New York Times-bestselling author; Emmy, SIBA, and ILA award-winning writers; and emerging, independent voices in YA fiction. The collection’s authors, like its stories, are UNBOUND—diverse voices exploring identity, love, betrayal, and becoming. They give us a glimpse into what can be: stories of possibility, love, friendship, the monsters around us and within us.
