Hi! I’m Claire, an author of books
for kids + grown-ups.
Every single month, I send out Coffee With Claire—a newsletter dedicated to writing, publishing, and the creative entrepreneur life. It’s basically what I’d tell you if you were sitting across from me at the delightful coffee shop I’m currently sitting in, and you asked, “Hey, how’s that writing thing going?” over an almond milk latte.
Middle Grade books
I write contemporary fiction for kids ages 8-12.*
*Age recommendations are lame. I still read Ramona Quimby books and I’m in my 30s.
Bring me to your school
I love visiting classrooms to talk about what I call the 6 R’s of writing and inspire elementary, middle, and high school students.
The Kate In Between is a perfect portrayal of the middle school struggle to fit in and find one's true self. Kate's voice had me hooked from the first page. Outstanding!
