My middle grade novel "Forsooth" is out tomorrow! Join 13-year-old theater kid Calvin Conroy as he navigates fractured friendships, first 🏳️‍🌈 crushes, and of course, plenty of drama! shopqueer.co/products/978...

Have you pre-ordered your copy of "Forsooth" yet? My middle grade novel about an anxious theater kid navigating first gay crushes is out next week!

"Matejek-Morris... gives serious treatment to mental health and the challenges of coming out in a religiously restrictive community... Readers with an existing interest in the performing arts will delight in the story, while those less comfortable in the spotlight will enjoy watching Calvin shine."

Thank you, Booklist, for your very kind review of Forsooth, out November 7:

My next book "Forsooth" is out in exactly one month! Featuring:

-Theater kids
-first 🏳️‍🌈 crushes
-a homemade movie that could totally save a friendship and I don't know, win an Oscar, maybe?
-an accidental church fire that is totally not Calvin’s faul

Pre-order now!
