I'm very grateful to have been awarded a grant from @accesscopyright.bsky.social!

Thanks so much for the interview!

Shenwei interviewed me last week for Taiwanese American Heritage Week! This is the first time someone has asked me about what went into creating the Cylian language on the page, a process which I was all too happy to nerd out about.

An edited panel from the graphic novel LU AND REN'S GUIDE TO GEOZOOLOGY. Lu holds her face in her hands, stars in her eyes, and says, "BOOKLIST *STARRED* REVIEW??"

Illustrated graphic with an excerpt from the Booklist review of LU AND REN'S GUIDE TO GEOZOOLOGY. The excerpt reads: "Migrating guinea pig mountains, island-size axolotls, and floating bands of cloudlike jellyfish are just a few of the delightfully imaginative geozoological phenomena in Hsieh’s clever debut graphic novel... This smart, grounded, and gentle fantasy is a quiet standout."

GEOZOOLOGY got its first starred review! Thank you to the folks at @ala-booklist.bsky.social!

Excited to listen to this!

YES!! 🌺

That’s so exciting Kerry, congratulations!!

The colorful cover of WHERE THERE BE MONSTERS by Alby C. Williams. It features colorful flowers and a tween black girl holding a book

"a shape trundles about, moving like something on four legs. My body tenses. It's one of the trees, bent down over itself and walking on its roots and branches like a huge, horrible spider."

Creepy creatures abound in the Outersphere! Dive into a twisting tale of monsters and mischief with Glory Brown in WHERE THERE BE MONSTERS, out on Tuesday! #MGEscapades #MiddleGradeBooks #BookQuotes

I did an interview with @bookfairepod.bsky.social about my GEOZOOLOGY! True to form, I go off on a tangent about mouthbrooding Darwin’s frogs before we hit the 10 minute mark. 🐸

I’m thrilled to see Unsinkable Cayenne on the 2025 Telling Tales Recommended Reading List along with so many other fabulous titles. #kidlit
