Rebecca Lowry Warchut

Vera Garcia's soccer career is suddenly sidelined at the start of her senior year when she's blinded by a brain tumor. When her single mother clings too tightly, both Vera's identity and her freedom are in jeopardy. They make it to St. Petersburg, Florida for surgery just as Hurricane Phoenix turns toward them. 

​

Will they succumb to loss? Or like the phoenix, reinvent themselves and rise anew?

Rebecca Lowry Warchut's debut novel was inspired by the Dali museums in Florida and Spain. An alumni of Wake Forest University, Teach for America, and Bank Street College of Education, she currently teaches writing and social studies in Simsbury, Connecticut. She serves on the Girls Write Now Anthology Editorial Committee and runs a NaNoWriMo Club. Rebecca lives in West Hartford, Connecticut with her husband and two daughters.

Lys in Cyberland is a modern-day Alice in Wonderland where Lys, a tween, falls into the black hole that is a cell phone.  

We just wrapped filming on this project and will be having the premiere in early December. Stay tuned for updates!
