I am a traditionally published YA author here on YouTube to offer insight into writing, YA & the publishing industry. My first two books Brightly Burning and The Stars We Steal, sci-fi retellings of classics (Jane Eyre and Persuasion), are OUT NOW, and are published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. My third book, YA thriller THE IVIES, will be out May 25, 2021 from Crown, an imprint of Penguin Random House. My fourth book, MURDER, SHE TEXTED, will release in 2022, also with Crown.

This channel has craft advice, publishing Real Talk, drafting and editing vlogs, interviews with authors, book reviews & more.

I am represented by the incredible Elana Roth Parker of Laura Dail Literary. You can find me @alexadonne on most social media spaces.
