Hi Tumblr friends, I'm the lead editor for LAURELl EVERYWHERE at Ooligan Press and when I was twelve, my dad passed away from his battle with lung cancer. I know first-hand how hard it is as a teenager to navigate a world in which everything is changing; your body changes, your hormones shift, all as you enter high school and accept new responsibilities while grieving the loss of a parent. It is overwhelming for many young adults. It was overwhelming for me to navigate social situations, school, sports—growing up—with a huge weight on my chest. Because of my personal relationship with grief, I am unbelievably excited to announce the forthcoming release of LAUREL EVERYWHERE by debut YA author Erin Moynihan, available in both trade paperback and ebook versions on November 10, 2020. With this title, we share the story of Laurel, a fifteen-year-old girl who must confront feelings of abandonment and extreme grief with the support of her family and friends. This story proves that there is no right way to grieve and, most importantly, that it is OK to not be OK. Available for pre-order now!
