PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
JR Creaden (they/them) writes hopepunk speculative fiction for children and adults from an artistic paradise disguised as a suburban house. If spotted in the wild, they're likely singing sincerely to the sky or nearby trees. Please help them find their flip flops.
"""A poignant, tender sci-fi story with humanity at heart, about overcoming grief and finding hope beyond a ravaged future on Earth.""-Xiran Jay Zhao, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Iron Widow ""The very definition of hopepunk, Moon Dust is the utopian dream of fighting the good fight with kindness, compassion, and community. Inclusive and diverse characters, including the AuDHD-coded Lane, battle corporate evils with hope for positive change. Written with breathtaking, genre-defying prose, this debut novel is the perfect beginning for new author, JR Creaden. Their take on the possibilities of utopia, and its opposition, brings to light many of the harmful issues of today's society. Idealistic in all the best ways, this science-fiction story is told with memorable characters whose emotions flow from the page. Moon Dust in My Hairnet should be devoured in one sitting, completely and utterly unputdownable.""-A.J. Super, author of the Seven Stars Saga ""Moon Dust in My Hairnet brings a charming, passionate voice to its tale of the world-changing power of innocence and imagination. Beautiful and full of heart!""-Sarah Porter, author of Never-Contented Things ""This book helps us dream of a better world, with valuable lessons on grief and community care. Lovable main characters break the mold in all of their neurodiverse, queer, and polyamorous glory.""-Karen Bao, author of Pangu's Shadow and Dove Arising"
