Calling yourselves "the first traditionally published GenZ book authors" sounds fake and gimmicky. I've seen articles about genZ authors for at least 5 years now -- are none of them traditionally published? Maybe shift the narrative from "we got there first" to "we offer a perspective unique from all the other first-generation-immigrant college kids".

That said, congrats on the book! What literature trends would you like to see become more mainstream in the next few years?

It says “one of the first” so I’m pretty sure all that means is that they’re on the upper end of the gen Z age bracket and not that they got in literally first

The book looks wonderful and is a great take for children who have experienced a move - and their parents. What brought you to this idea?

Is Lily a completely made up character or did you insert some of your own feelings and experiences into the character from your experiences in Taiwan?
