I spy LINGHUN?! 👀‼️

I loved Linghun, by Ai Jiang. A girl and her family move to a sought after neighbourhood of haunted houses. The living don't seem to matter as much as the dead in this weird, dilapidated place and the house auctions kind of remind me of The Lottery. Weirdness treated as normal, I love it

An interview! 👀‼️✨

I loved @aijiang.bsky.social's Linghun and it was an honor to chat with her about it! Take a look at the interview and be sure to check out this book for spooky season. It has ghosts, haunted houses, and so much more. It will linger. armedwithabook.com/ai-jiang/

My new story “Where the Water Whispers” is in this book “Waterborne.” Along with a bunch of others that promise to be great. Edited by @henryherz.bsky.social Check it out! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bro...

Sharing another blurb this morning, this time from the fantabulous @aijiang.bsky.social. Thank you so much, Ai! 🥹

We had a great turnout for Horror Book Club in October! Our next meeting is November 11th at 7pm at Heirloom Rustic Ales. We'll be reading Linghun by Ai Jiang. This is recurrent event, the first Tuesday of every month, so mark your calendars!

me: it’s time to take a break between projects also me: *immediately opens file for next project* 😶‍🌫️

It’s wild to think that A PALACE NEAR THE WIND was my second book written, that it came out this year, but I’m currently getting ready to work on my 9th book 😶‍🌫️ (I do write much on the shorter end compared to many writers however 🙇🏻‍♀️🥹)
