Time Out for Dark Water November 13, 2007 – Posted in: Altered Fluid

Alaya Dawn Johnson, whose first novel Racing the Dark just came out from Agate Bolden, was recently interviewed by Time Out Chicago.

“I definitely consider this a coming-of-age story,” says Johnson, on the phone from New York. “It begins with that classic moment: The girl gets her period. It speaks to a certain age where you’re biologically an adult, but you aren’t emotionally.”

Congratulations Alaya!
