Hi friends, my book, Sisters, is available through Bloomsbury today! www.bloomsbury.com/us/sisters-9...
For folks who can get to Oakland on Thursday, I'm super excited to interview Sara about her brilliant lefty vampire novel.
Kinda proud of this author pic coup www.bloomsbury.com/us/author/jo...
Blurbs for my upcoming Timecodes book on Sisters from brilliant critics. Endlessly stunned and grateful.
I'm a bit overwhelmed by tragedies in my community and in the world, but I can't help expressing immense gratitude that my book, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, has made the preliminary ballot for the Bram Stoker Awards. I'm honored to be included in a list with so many brilliant nominees.
Amazing blurbs for Baby Jane from my heroes Erin Harrington, author of Women, Monstrosity and Horror Film: Gynaehorror, and Payton McCarty-Simas author of That Very Witch: Fear, Feminism, and the American Witch Film. Feeling all the feminist horror geek solidarity! diediebooks.com/products/wha...
Still not sure what I think of Weapons but I can't help but feel Zach Cregger is trolling me.
So thrilled to give the keynote for this amazing Feminist Horror Symposium at SJSU!
