I would love to write a novel connected to OFA in the future (I even have the sequel planned out and the first few chapters written), but whether or not it is published is out of my hands. The best way to help that happen is to continue spreading the word about OFA.
As far as my other work is concerned, I will have a short story in a YA disability horror anthology called These Bodies Ain't Broken coming from Page Street, scheduled for Fall 2025. There isn't a Goodreads or preorder link yet, but I will share it here when the time comes!
Re: novels, I have so many planned/written. Some are YA, some are adult, but all of them feature chronic illness/disability in different ways. Again, so much of this is out of my hands as an author, but I really hope these books will find their way onto shelves someday soon (and I will of course update my website/social media/my Goodreads page whenever I have news.)(less)

Upcoming Publication News

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll have a short story in the upcoming Young Adult horror anthology, THESE BODIES AIN’T BROKEN, out October 7th from Page Street.

I’ve waited to write this particular story since my final year of undergrad (and yes, it will have Postural

“We are not the ones who are written into history. We are the ones who ensure history exists to be written.”
Lillie Lainoff, One for All

“Now, whenever I had a good day, people were quick to assume I felt better. It was hard enough living with the knowledge that if I felt healthy, it didn’t mean the next day would be the same. Being reminded of that fact by others was a painfully close second.”
Lillie Lainoff, One for All

“We’re Musketeers. We are sisters in arms. We don’t let each other fall, and we never will.”
Lillie Lainoff, One for All
