A surprise came in the mail today. Galleys of THE DIAMOND EXPLORER, coming 9/17/24 from Dutton Books. A thin volume that has taken me a very long time: my very first middle-grade fiction!

'Yang (Kao Kalia Yang) clearly spent long hours listening to her mother’s memories for this book. 'I am lucky that I get to be your daughter in this lifetime,' she writes. 'In all the lifetimes to come, if I get to choose, let me be your daughter again.''
