  <about><![CDATA[Marie is author of the funny and touching YA novel WHAT I MEANT... (Random House), and has just completed two other novels: OVER MY HEAD and DRAWN. OVER MY HEAD is about a biracial teen's awkward, hilarious, yet brave search for true love.  DRAWN is about a teen artist who moves to England in search of normal, only to find she is channeling through her artwork one very hot ghost. Marie's essay &quot;The View from Outside&quot; has just been published in the anthology CALL ME OKAASAN: Adventures in Multicultural Mothering. ]]></about>  <influences><![CDATA[dark chocolate!]]></influences>
