On the Las Musas Blog, we talked to @marciamickelson.bsky.social about her new book, The Writing Room. www.lasmusasbooks.com/blog/las-mus...
Happy Book birthday to @marciamickelson.bsky.social The Writing Room is a slice-of-life coming-of-age story that addresses larger themes of immigration, economic disparity, and emotional abuse.
Book news! Coming spring 2027, ANDY AND THE TRI-CORNERED BASEBALL GAME is my first historical fiction, inspired by a real game that brought the Dodgers, Yankees, and Giants together for one game in 1944 as part of a war bond drive.
Get some insights and writing tips. Thanks, Patricia Brown.

Today is #ClementeDay. I wrote a children's book about #RobertoClemente. CALL ME ROBERTO! is not just about baseball feats or a tragic death. It's about a man whose defiance of bigotry has given me permission to be myself in a world that would rather I be someone else. And I'm so grateful.
