I wrote The Companions We Lose years ago and after a handful of rejections, and one publisher contract dissolving, I honestly didn't plan for it to see the light of day.

It's the second book I ever wrote, based on the simple but gut wrenching concept that everyone can relate to: losing a pet...

And I know it's a choice but the need to write that seemingly is permanently rooted in my soul overpowers anything else.

I can either...

Write more books or read more books; the former always wins out.

It still makes me sad missing out on all the new great releases.
I am sorry there are not two of me because I can't seem to find a way to balance

all the reading I'd like to do
and all the Art I'd like to make

One always has to suffer when I choose the other, and I never have enough time for either

Overall, the collection is wonderful, but the title novelette was my favorite. I loved it. It didn't need to be shorter or longer, the length perfect. I'd kill to see it done as a short film.

Rasmussen's writing is fantastic, her metaphors unique and funny at times. And, the illustrations done by Rhiannon and Lucia throughout are great, too. 2/?

Finished this collection and enjoyed it quite a bit. Every story's a little different but mostly in the Weird vein, sci-fi like I Have No Mouth But I Must Screams, some gothic and quiet, and others straight speculative fiction. 1/?

So living with my parents abruptly became unsafe (mentally/emotionally) and I'm leaving ASAP. I have somewhere to go, but it's out of state. I'm packing now but I have to register my car before I go and that's $500. Anything helps. ๐Ÿซ€

Banger book, loved it
Hi hey my new book comes out on Jan 20, and she's real pretty, and there's a giveaway of ten of these shiny sprayed hardcovers on GR, otherwise you can ask your local bookstore for one and that would mean the world to me!

I donโ€™t say this lightly: anyone who does this is a pathetic loser and needs to find a new hobby.

Good literary criticism is just as valuable in every respect as a good novel; it's incredibly sad to see it cut out by digital performance metrics and private equity companies.

Makes me grateful for places like Ancillary Review of Books & Typebar doing the good work in a hostile media environment.
