❤️your readership and support means the world to me!

I’m featuring a woman in horror with a new release each week through March! @vlatinalondon.bsky.social’s new book, Maria the Wanted is available now! I also asked Castro to recommend a fellow woman in horror, and she suggests you read the awesome @manylittlewords.bsky.social 🖤

Day 2 Maria The Wanted sold out ! @scaresthatcare.bsky.social for a good cause!

Horror people are the best people. Grateful for the community and all you readers

Gotta represent at @scaresthatcare.bsky.social

Dream big, Brown girls. Growing up in Texas I worked at HEB to buy books from @barnesandnoble.com and eventually pay for my SATs. Senior year I skipped school just to hang out in the aisles. Now I sign my books in their stores. Thank you 🙏🏽

Still time to join! I’ll be there tomorrow cheering on all the bad ass women writers!

MASSIVE THANKS to everyone who showed up at The Twisted Spine last night! Grateful for @claymcleod.bsky.social and @natcassidy.bsky.social for their support. It’s nice to have friends who know what it’s like to be on the hustle for what they love! I’ve also been told recent sales.. .THANK YOU 😭

Calling all night creatures…Ready to talk all things horror at The Twisted Spine!!!

Thank you all so very much for your congratulations and well wishes! I’m currently on my way to NYC for the Twisted Spine event tonight! It’s been days of cancellations and travel. Can’t wait to see you tonight or at AuthorCon!

Tonight, authors Lindy Ryan (DOLLFACE), Chris Panatier (DAYTIDE), Saratoga Schaefer (TRAD WIFE) & V. Castro (MARIA THE WANTED) join me for a jam-packed Fearmongers. Monday, 2/23 at 8 PM/ET. Register via Zoom here: bit.ly/3MjioFa

Due to the sudden closure of the small press publishing our anthology, we're looking for a new home! "Silk and Foxglove" is a BIPOC anthology of 13 stories of erotic-eco-horror! It's weird, gorgeous, evocative, & unnerving as hell! Please boost! If any small presses are interested, let me know!

Join author @vlatinalondon.bsky.social for the US launch of her newest novel, MARIA THE WANTED, where she will be in conversation with fellow author @natcassidy.bsky.social! 🎟️ Tickets here: https://tinyurl.com/483av4u5

As always, a bloody, smart, bloody, unapologetically political, bloody, sexy, bloody good time. As @vlatinalondon.bsky.social said in an interview years ago, “Why write about werewolves when my ancestors revered jaguars?” If you’re in NYC go to this & make me jealous!

Authorcon is happening February 27-March 1 and @vlatinalondon.bsky.social will be there! The Queen of Cicadas was my first read by V. And it’s an awesome tale of restless spirits and revenge. Looking forward to jumping into her newest, Maria the Wanted! #horror #authorcon #revenge #vampires

If the motherfucking KING OF ENGLAND is willing to have his own brother arrested because he's a pedo, whomever is running in the midterms and in 2028 needs to bring fire and brimstone for EVERYONE in the files. Charles himself realizes how important this is! This is not an extreme position!

I’ll be at AuthorCon very soon! Any indie bookstores want to purchase unsold stock directly from me?

At Author Con next weekend? Buy a ticket for this event! It’s only $17, Sonora knows her stuff, and all of the money goes to charity: she’s not taking a dime! Buy a ticket and soak up her wisdom; buy a ticket even if you’re NOT going! @scaresthatcare.bsky.social @sonorataylor.bsky.social

What a line up of Guests of Honour! We feel extremely lucky and grateful to have them all. Have you bought your ticket yet? britishfantasysociety.org/events-calen...

I was asked about women in horror! www.scifinow.co.uk/blog/women-i...

Many thanks to @vlatinalondon.bsky.social for including WITHOUT CONDITION in this excellent list of women in horror recommendations! www.scifinow.co.uk/blog/women-i...

When I think of Robert Duvall I think of the film Colors because that was the closest to my youth. I vividly remembers Maria Conchita Alonso and excited to see some Latina rep. Being a homegirl. Then I watched the Godfather. What a loss.

Prosecco dispenser and tarot … Im scary accurate. Ask @manylittlewords.bsky.social Girl’s night in !

Can’t believe it was at my barnes and noble when I got in today 🤩🥳 you know I couldn’t leave without it #MariatheWanted #vampire #booksky @vlatinalondon.bsky.social

The Pink Agave Motel is in the category for COLLECTION ❤️ What happens to supernatural creatures when colonisation pushes them deeper into the margins? Carnival in Rio, a motel of pleasures in Philly, a merman washes up in Corpus Christi, Tx.

Totally agree with @renanbernardo.com and in the meantime, suggest to folks the amazing "Latin American Shared Stories" which I'm currently reading, edited by the marvellous @vlatinalondon.bsky.social: bookshop.org/p/books/lati...

The Valentines Day menu has included a bit of witchcraft, skincare, bubbles, bit of horror later. Next year will be different.

I won’t be watching Wuthering Heights unless some werewolves run across the moors.

Eat or be eaten- happy Valentine’s Day 👀

I love @vlatinalondon.bsky.social’s work so much and, insane as it is to believe, this is one of the first times I’ll get to talk about it with her. Come join us and chat vamps together!! 🧛‍♂️🧛‍♀️🧛 Feb 24th at Twisted Spine! www.eventbrite.com/e/launch-eve...
