THE NEWS IS OUT! Say hello to Lethal Kiss, a queer dark academia horror romance out in fall 2026 from Tor Nightfire!! It's all about a draugr and a mortal, both assistant professors, tangled up in mxrder on their prestigious university campus 🥰 I'm so excited to bring Marcella and Lacie to you!

18 Upcoming Queer Horror Books for June Pride Month In honor of Pride Month, and as part of my Summer of Horror event, I'm thrilled to present a bunch of upcoming queer horror books! All of these feature queer characters, queer themes, and/or are written by queer authors, and most of them were…

the way I screamed (USA Today bestseller list!!!!)

Hollow is in the TOP 15 MOST REQUESTED HORROR BOOKS ON NETGALLEY WHAT 😭❤️😭❤️😭 thank you all so much

I could absolutely screech with joy because: Hollow is on Netgalley!!!! Ahhh!! And not only is Hollow on Netgalley, but it’s on the front page of most requested horror books!! 😭😭😭 you can request Hollow now!!!

[grabs bullhorn] HOLLOW IS GETTING A MULTI-STOP TOUR AHHHHHHHH 😭 mark your calendars for debut week!!

Being Publishing Vague is SO HARD, like what do you mean I can’t tell my thousands best friends about my news?!?????

YA & Middle Grade Horror I'm excited about! I already read and loved HOLLOW by @taylorlgrothe.bsky.social All of these books are on my TBR!

Me and my agent matching each other’s freak on a cosmic level 😌

It’s taken a long time for me to settle on what to say about the LibGen database and theft of books for AI. But I think I’m there now. I spent decades of my life unready to begin. I spent late nights, hunched over sleeping infants, squinting to read in low light.

[deep breath] OHMYGOD I have such INCREDIBLE news and I CANNOT TALK ABOUT IT I AM DSHKJFSDKHJF

Today is the LAST DAY to apply to be a part of Hollow's street team!! It's wild to me how many people have applied already (~100!! what!) but the form isn't closed yet! Open to international, too, but space is limited because I'm responsible for funding this deep, dark forest :)

Me: [marks something unread so I can deal with it later] Me: Me: Me: ooh look a notification! 😒😒😒😒😒😒

What an incredibly thoughtful and helpful video by the talented @taylorlgrothe.bsky.social 🫶🏻 youtu.be/I4ioSUnnpt8

An evergreen reminder that if you post anything HP related I’m immediately unfollowing you. In this political climate where trans and nonbinary rights are under attack, your complicity in supporting a major anti-trans author is telling.

Took the kiddos out for a celebratory dinner and put on makeup properly for the first time in weeks, pls applaud

Trans Rights Readathon is March 21-31 🏳️‍⚧️ and since it is especially needed this year, I made a booklist of trans horror authors to seek out and discover (myself included). These are exceptional works of fiction in a variety of formats, so please—take your pick (but do!)

I’m not on here much but: 👀I AM PUBLISHING VAGUE👀

That screech (positive) you heard was me in Connecticut because [redacted]

"I love conceptualizing characters who are ND, because ND brains are beautiful, wonderful places—but we also experience significant barriers to entry & stigmas that I like to challenge." This quote 😭💗 a joy to interview @taylorlgrothe.bsky.social about their writing #BookSky tinyurl.com/mvy95nhb

Exciting things are afoot my friends!!! 😭 I've been asking you to light all your candles already--but if you have room for one more, I would love you for it!

Oh, yeah, I’m so totally normal and fine and really—REALLY—a reasonable level of excited [high pitched screech]

I haven’t been here much but I have to tell you something [takes breath] aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (positive)

It’s official!! MFA’d 😌🎉🥳

Your evergreen reminder to subscribe to my substack where you can see FUN GOODIES early--and this coming missive, Hollow's preorder art before anyone else!!! substack.com/@hallowedwords

I may be hearing really good secret news this week, so please light your candles for me 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️ I could really use this win. It's been a loooooong season.

My entire brand is “I support femmes’ rights and femmes’ wrongs and ESPECIALLY femmes angry kissing,” and the far right can literally do nothing about it 😌

✨RFK can fig ht me✨ My books will always be about neurodiversity and chronic illness and angry femmes fighting back against the patriarchy, about intersectional feminism and the beauty of our world's natural variation.

A reminder that I have a NINTH HOUSE meets JENNIFER’S BODY proposal out there in the world and I might be getting closer to being able to share it!! If you like whip smart, fast-paced dark academia adult crossover with something ✨worse✨ than succubae, let me know 😌

Need some Tuesday night plans? Join @taylorlgrothe.bsky.social, @bookishduck.bsky.social, @edcrockerbooks.bsky.social, and I on March 4th as we talk about books, SFFH, and writing shenanigans. Link to follow, but stick it in your diary now. You know how quickly Tuesdays get booked up.
