🌊Yoo-Hoo! I’m Caroline. 🌊
I’m an author of young adult dystopian sci-fi. I love writing about fierce girls, the ocean, and the future. Every month-ish, I send out a newsletter with author updates, process stats, and creative musings.
In early 2023, I signed with the literary agency that represents Hunger Games for my YA sci-fi set underwater, MAY WE PLEASE THE SEA. We’ll be pitching to publishers in early 2024!
Here are my latest updates:
