"Matejek-Morris... gives serious treatment to mental health and the challenges of coming out in a religiously restrictive community... Readers with an existing interest in the performing arts will delight in the story, while those less comfortable in the spotlight will enjoy watching Calvin shine."

My next book "Forsooth" is out in exactly one month! Featuring:

-Theater kids
-first πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ crushes
-a homemade movie that could totally save a friendship and I don't know, win an Oscar, maybe?
-an accidental church fire that is totally not Calvin’s faul

Pre-order now!
