[Otessa]

Straying away from the traditional format, but I still wanted to say HI to all the fellow book lovers out there. My name is Otessa, and I grew up and currently live in the capital of the United States, Washington DC. I have fond memories of growing up in DC's '90s grunge era -- so much so that I used it as inspiration for my web series about rebellious youth, exploring the city and finding themselves during that time. I'm now in the process of turning the series, called "Orange Juice in Bishop's Garden," into books. I'm excited to get to know many of you and to hear about you're reading!!
