edit data

Thanks for visiting me on Goodreads!

I grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii, and if I didn't have my face in the water (swimming, playing water polo), most likely I had my nose in a book.

I moved to California to go to college and play more water polo, and now I'm an English teacher, coach, mom, and YA writer.

I love rainstorms, Star Wars, sushi, cooking, and discovering new books to read.

My first YA novel, THE COUNTERFEIT FAMILY TREE OF VEE CRAWFORD-WONG, was recently published by Simon&Schuster. Please give it a read - and maybe even a review!

Quotes by L. Tam Holland

“I was missing lectures leading up to an essay test, so I went downstairs & got my textbook & pretended to study, with Animal Planet playing in the background. Everyone we learned about was either white or some sort of predecessor of the white, Christian world--as if the Stone Age, Bronze Age & Iron Age were just Greek & Roman stepping stones. As if everyone outside of Europe was still grunting & digging for grubs. As if China, centuries before Jesus started squalling in his crib, hadn't already kicked Europe's ass in technology & art.”
― L. Tam Holland, The Counterfeit Family Tree of Vee Crawford-Wong
