Hey, I'm launching a Patreon! You may have heard that it's just a little bit hard to make a living as a writer these days, so if you like my culture writing, please consider subscribing 🖤 My first essay, live now and free to all, is on Elem Klimov's Come and See www.patreon.com/posts/143805...

Today is my birthday. I would like many things but from you specifically I want $2,500 for @scarleteen.com's annual fundraiser, which is supporting staff & volunteer healthcare this year. We need $2,500 to unlock a $10,000 match and this would really make my day! Donate to my campaign page here.

We’re thrilled to announce Poppy Creek, the debut novel by Ivy Fang! This darkly funny twist on a haunted house tale follows Laurel Meng, a Chinese American con woman posing as an exorcist, and will be published by Tor Nightfire in 2027. reactormag.com/book-announc...

attention buckaroos BLACK FLAME by @scumbelievable.bsky.social comes out tomorrow and it is outrageously good. highly recommended for buds who like their horror pitch black and ruthless as heck. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

one of my favorite books of the year is out today: BLACK FLAME by @scumbelievable.bsky.social is a seething, compelling, nasty story about how repression hollows you out, and how you can never be self-abnegating enough to please people who hate you. It’s repulsive, erotic, heartbreaking. 12/10 stars

Watching “Escape From LA” for the first time, just got to the Coliseum scene and am wondering — @sgj.bsky.social did you write this?!?

In two weeks, please join Gretchen Felker-Martin (BLACK FLAME) and Wendy N. Wagner (GIRL IN THE CREEK) on our July episode of Fearmongers. What a glorious evening it will be, full of blisteringly beautiful books. Wednesday, July 30th at 8 PM/ET. Register via Zoom here: bit.ly/4eTvkvw

CUCKOO IS A USA TODAY BESTSELLER, BAY-BEE

Please don't buy paperbacks (or any books) from Amazon. For many many reasons, including that the company will ship crummy print-on-demand copies of books when their stock runs out. For the same price and with no indication that the book is facsimile.
