I am new to superhero comics, though growing up I read Archie comics, religiously. I've been doing a lot of catching up, reading what's out there and it's been wonderful to see what's going on in contemporary comics.

I am interested in intense, unbreakable emotional connections and oftentimes, such connections can be found between siblings.

What is it like to be connected to someone you can never get away from, for better or worse? I love trying to answer that question.

I love writing fiction because I can totally lose myself and I get to make up the rules of the world that I'm writing.

I believe feminism is grounded in supporting the choices of women even if we wouldn’t make certain choices for ourselves.

I am fine with my books being categorized as African-American literature but I hope they are also considered Haitian-American literature and American literature. All of these things are part of who I am and what I write.

Oftentimes, when a woman demands accountability, respect, or consideration, she is crazy or nagging or whatever.
