As an undergrad at NYU, I loved writing for The Washington Square News. It was fun to talk to a student reporter there about my new book. nyunews.com/news/2024/04/1…

'When we see someone share something inappropriate, it’s important to resist the temptation to clap back by commenting on their post, since comments send a signal to social networks that people like and want to see more similar content.' Kara Alaimo, PhD cnn.com/2024/04/10/opi…

Amazing news -- and an ask: My publisher has ordered a second print run of 'Over the Influence!' Now the book could use more Amazon/Goodreads reviews to keep the momentum going. If you've had a chance to read, I'd be so grateful if you'd leave a review. Thank you!!
