I love ghosts. I love scary movies. I love teen girls hunting to solve mysteries. Which is why I have so much fun writing the Daphne and Velma series for Scholastic! (Book 2, THE DARK DECEPTION, is out now, and I recently turned in book 3, coming summer 2021!)

Recently, I got to be a guest on a great podcast about reading: NPR’s STEM Read podcast, where host Gillian King-Cargile asked me about the history of ghosts in literature and why Scooby Doo continues to attract fans. I was super excited to also hear from Edgar Cantero, whose book Meddling Kids has been on my to-be-read list for ages, and dime novel expert Sata Prescott.
