Seven Years in Chicago Selected for ALA Annual 2026

I am honored to share that Seven Years in Chicago: A Journey of Growth | Part 1: Survival has been selected for inclusion in the IngramSpark Author Exhibit at the American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference & Exhibition 2026 in Chicago.

The conference brings together more than 12,000 librarians, educators, and publishing professionals from around the world. As part of the exhibit, the novel will be displayed and featured in print and digital catalogs distributed to attendees and library buyers.

This is an exciting opportunity to introduce Seven Years in Chicago to the library community and to readers who connect with literary fiction exploring grief, love, trauma, and resilience in the years following 9/11.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey.
