Remember Us
For 11 year old Sage, it was the year the whole world seemed to be on fire
Where it takes place:
In the Bushwick section of Brooklyn.
Where I wrote it:
In Brooklyn and while I was traveling around the country.
Why I wrote it:
I wanted to write a novel about the fires that happened in my childhood neighborhood and so I created the character, Sage, who dreams of being a pro-basketball player. Sage and her sweet and wise best friend, Freddy, like me when I was their age, are trying to understand what it means to live in a world that feels like it’s burning.
