Gabby Rivera is een queer Puerto Ricaanse auteur met de missie om de wildste, meest leuke verhalen te creëren. Ze schreef geschiedenis als de eerste Latina die voor Marvel Comics schreef, en creëerde een solorun over een krachtige, portal-openende queer Latina hoofdpersoon. Haar veelgeprezen debuutroman viert identiteit en empowerment van jongeren, en verkent thema's van zelfontdekking met levendige energie. Rivera's schrijven is gericht op het inspireren en vieren van de QTPOC-gemeenschap, waarbij vreugde en levendige storytelling prioriteit krijgen voor jonge queer lezers en hun families.
