The Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights
I'm very proud to announce that I will be on the governing board of the Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights. The Young Center is a champion for the best interests of unaccompanied immigrant children who arrive in the United States on their own, from all corners of the world. The Young Center serves as a trusted ally to these children by accompanying them through court proceedings and training volunteers to visit them in detention centers, acting as advocates for the children. They work in the best interests of the child, whatever those individual best interests may be, to keep them safe. Learn more about The Young Center here: https://www.theyoungcenter.org
Let me invade your inbox
I've decided to share longer, more personal letters with friends and readers over email. These letters will be about writing, books, motherhood, Brazil, coffee, farming, travel, literature, criticism, music, failure (usually my own), my incredibly low tolerance for alcohol these days (I can't drive after consuming half a glass of Kombucha), and whatever else I'm up to. I promise I won't inundate you with emails; just a few a year. Sign up below, or click this link.
Gostaria de receber emails sobre literatura, família, café, musica, Brasil, Chicago, e outros pensamentos que tenho? Por favor acesse o link para se inscrever. (A maioria dos emails serão em inglês mas vou tentar alguns em português também!) Abraços

Fotos do Lançamento de Entre Irmãs
Eu nunca pensei que um dia meu livro seria um filme. Mas fico muito contente que minha obra possa inspirar outras obras. É o elogio mais sincero que podemos receber. Estou compartilhando algumas fotos da semana muito especial que passei no Rio, Recife e São Paulo para a estréia do filme e o novo lançamento do livro.
I never expected my book to become a film, but I'm very happy that my work can inspire other artists in other genres. Here are some photos from the film's primiere in Recife and some press events in São Paulo.
