Meet Frankie. WE ARE NOT FREE Character Reveal

4/22/2020

 
Bookmark from We Are Not Free with the quote, “Tyranny is locking us up. Tyranny is taking our freedom. Tyranny is right here. Tyranny is American.”--Frankie (age 19), Central Utah Relocation Center, 1943
‪Meet Frankie. 👊🏼 Thinks with his fists. Mad as hell. A year after the gov’t incarcerates 100k Japanese Americans, and now they’ve got the nerve to ask them to volunteer to for the army? Nah, son. #WeAreNotFree ‬

Go to my Twitter to win one of Frankie's bookmarks!

Attention, gentlepersons! Now introducing... Bette! WE ARE NOT FREE Character Reveal

4/8/2020

 
bookmark and a quote from We Are Not Free: “I choose to see the bright side of any situation, no matter how dim. I saw the good in that God-awful train ride from California. I see the good in Topaz, despite the dust, the plumbing, and the cold... This should be no different. I should be no different, and it should be easy, because as of tonight, I’ve decided to think of myself as gorgeous, and not once in my life have I been DIM.”--Bette (age 17), Central Utah Relocation Center, 1942
Attention, gentlepersons! Now introducing... Bette! 💅🏼 A true bon vivant. Excellent taste in boys & clothes. A barbed wire camp in the middle of the Utah desert certainly isn’t IDEAL for romance, but the right lipstick & the right attitude can make all the difference.

Go to my Facebook page for a chance to win one of Bette's bookmarks!

Five Months to Launch!

4/1/2020

FIVE MONTHS ‘til launch! In case you missed the announcement last week, the release date for WE ARE NOT FREE has been changed to September 1, 2020, so please re-mark your calendars for this fall!
.
In the meantime, please do pre-order your copy from your favorite local bookstore (or through Bookshop.org, which benefits a number of independent bookstores). Ordering now helps to give them some much-needed relief at a time when many stores are having to temporarily shut their doors to the public, AND you still get your copy of WE ARE NOT FREE come September! With the pandemic affecting everyone, it’s a great time to come together in what small ways we can to help one another out. 💚
.
💫 If you pre-order, please remember to hang on to your receipts, as I’ve still got a fun thing planned for you. ✨ ​
