Super excited to talk about writing for THE CURIE SOCIETY: ERIS ETERNAL, which came out March 26, 2024. This 168-page sequel follows the continuing adventures of three college students, recent recruits in The Curie Society, a top secret organization protecting and furthering beneficial science. They’re on a mission to Paris and beyond to investigate several new technologies, all the while navigating how to speak up and get heard. Check it out in a bunch of formats on Amazon, direct from MIT Press, or wherever books are sold.
Writing this was an amazing experience. It was about creating a narrative that mixes science with adventure, appealing to young and old alike. I aimed to keep the story fresh and engaging, hoping to spark curiosity about science in my readers.
I wrote this graphic novel in collaboration with Heather Einhorn, Adam Staffaroni, and artist Sonia Liao, with editing magic from Joan Hilty. I did not have it on my bucket list to be published by MIT Press, but I’ll add it retroactively! It’s more than a story; it’s a journey into a world where science meets adventure. Can’t wait for you to join in! Check it out here for more details.
