I'm thrilled to share that my debut novel, Lessons in Attention, will be out with @tinhouse.bsky.social in 2026! A testament to faith, friendship, and how people change us, it follows a series of friends as they attempt to reach one another across Oxford, Oslo, Brazil. Can't wait to share it 🤗

The question made its way into this story, set in Berlin & published this month in La Piccioletta Barca: www.picciolettabarca.com/posts/where-...
