If you’re a successful woman working in STEM today, thank the women you’ll find in The Exceptions. It’s a powerful story of real-life Elizabeth Zotts, brought to life by the talented @kzernike

@StubbsStacey Took me forever. I got 98 rejections on my last book, then had the exact opposite reaction with my current one. It's definitely not easy and it's human to feel defeated, so let yourself grieve a little (or a lot!) and then sit back down and prove all the naysayers wrong. ❤️
