| Bio: | My debut YA novel, TOTAL CONSTANT ORDER, is now available from HarperCollins.
"Likable characters and an intense pace."
- School Library Journal
"Plenty of kids, OCD or not, will...find the exploration of disorder and identity thought-provoking."
- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Readers, especially those stuck with their own annoying rituals, will recognize the anger, the anxiety, and the longing for escape."
- ALA Booklist
"This must-have story is fresh. Chappell's first novel is a breakthrough."
- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) (Starred Review: an Editor's Choice Book)
- A New York Public Library Book For The Teen Age
- A Florida Book Award medalist
I love teaching film and creative writing classes at the Art Institute downtown.
