Hello! You found the SECRET PAGE!

Welcome to the official book page - available to you only by scanning the QR code in the book. (Or you know, browsing my website for secret pages). Here you can find a whole host of images, links, playlists and other hand-curated supplements to go with Not Quite White.

In case you arrived here by accident, let me be the first to tell you that my book, Not Quite White, was released June 23rd 2022 by Simon & Schuster. You can order it here. Not Quite White is a memoir primarily focused on mixed race identity and also looking at representation, structural racism, intergenerational trauma and interracial family relations. It’s also heartbreaking, lyrical, and funny as hell!

Thanks so much for being here! I’m glad you made it!
