==Quotes==
{{quote|I cannot tell you what a relief it was to write a book about a teen who is like me. Kivali is not me, but the ease of writing a teen with much of my core, essential experience of the world was amazing. It was a gift I could not have imagined when I started writing for teens at the age of 24.
 
I was out as a [[lesbian]] but I didn’t have a word for my experience of gender. Some words came close – [[androgynous]], [[butch]], [[dyke]], [[tomboy]] – but they weren’t quite right. <ref name="GayYA" />}}
