Loving this cover! Designed by @PandaErica and illustrated by #SaraPalacios cc: @GalltZacker #PocketsOfLove
Official cover reveal! In 2021 wrote a story about empanadas, but it was really about how much I miss my mom’s food 💖
I got to collaborate with the amazing Sara Palacios and now this book will be out Sept 2, from HarperCollins. Preorder here: harpercollins.com/products/p…

My US publisher is primarily @HarperCollins. I hope that the terrific people working there, who get my books made and onto the shelves, succeed in their demands. publishersweekly.com/pw/by-t…

This strike is so important; HarperCollins is one of the few publishers with a union workforce for junior employees. We NEED to make this business more equitable. See below for ways to help our Harper friends.

i’m a HarperCollins author and none of my books would ever get produced the way they do without all the brilliant editorial marketing and publicity staff who deserve better. i love my harper team and i want the best for them!! solidarity and waiting for a fair contract ❤️

strike starts TODAY-- if you're able, pledge some $$ to support the striking workers, or email [email protected] in support of a fair contract. the industry cannot become more diverse if it does not pay a living wage!! #hcponstrike

I, as a freelance book critic for NPR, the Washington Post, the LA Times, and more, stand with @hcpunion and #hcponstrike and will do my utmost to hold reviews and criticism regarding HarperCollins titles until its workers have a fair contract. Solidarity!

I fully support the @hcpunion strike!

Until the strike is over, I won't be sending any submissions to @HarperCollins. @HCPUnion is one of few unions in publishing fighting for worker's rights. News Corp, HC's parent company, doubled its profits in 2021/22 to a record $US760m. Good luck tomorrow, pals. ✊ #HCPOnStrike

As a Harper author, I stand with @hcpunion - on strike now. Join me in donating to their strike fund and support these workers - who make the books we all love - going without pay to fight for what’s right linktr.ee/hcpunion/ Solidarity always.

Publishing employees deserve a fair contract! #hcponstrike – at Philadelphia, PA

The publishing industry has needed change for years, and it just isn't happening. This reader/reviewer/assistant stands in solidarity for a fair contract.
Erica De Chavez Wong retweeted
As a HarperCollins author, I fully support this. Everyone in publishing is working too hard for too little, and it's only getting worse. Publishers need to start recognizing the value of their employees and pay accordingly, NOT just the bare minimum.
Readers, authors, agents, freelancers:
ALT Anyone: •Donate to our strike fund •Email [email protected] with your support •Boost our message on social media (Find assets at the drive link in our linktree!)
ALT Authors and agents: NO NEW CONTRACTS WITHOUT OUR CONTRACT! As of 11/10, we will be going on strike until we have a fair contract. We're asking you to strongly consider holding any new submissions to any HarperCollins editor until we have reached an agreement. (This would not apply to any existing contractual obligations like deadlines or option material.) #HCPONSTRIKE
ALT Freelancers: •Don't take new HC contracts while we're striking •Don't renege on existing contracts
