Keep Staring

by Larime Taylor

Keep Staring is a kids-on-bikes kind of story in the vein of Paper Girls, Stranger Things and the like, but all of the main cast of teens are disabled. The book follows high school freshman Lupe de la Paz, born with a birth defect that leaves her without much use of her arms and legs, as she settles into a small California town and befriends several other disabled teens. They soon discover a cult conspiracy threatening to take over the town, uncovering a world of monsters lurking just beneath the notice of everyone else.

About the author

Larime Taylor is a disabled artist and writer living in California.

Most of what he writes falls somewhere between urban fantasy and horror, or dark urban fairytale, as he likes to call it. While his stories do not focus solely or specifically on matters of disability, disabled characters do feature in many of them. He basically writes the kinds of things that he would like to read, but with characters that he can relate to as a disabled person.
