Just recorded a fantastic, hysterical conversation with Virginia Feito - about VICTORIAN PSYCHO.

Involves an anecdote about how an annoying toddler on a plane inspired the grisliest scene in the book.

Coming soon.

My fellow authors with books out soon—god, I’m so very sorry.

I finally read “The Yellow Wallpaper.” It’s one of my Da’s favourite short stories, & of course they read it *to* me when I was younger but this was my first time reading it on my own. I definitely want it on my shelf going forward.

Just a heads up but as a daughter of a trans parent who’s American - I have 3 parents, 2 of whom are American & 1 who is Scottish - I’m very aware of the situation in the USA & we’re not doing nothing but I’m not going to talk about it much on here. Da’s a fighter, though. They’ve got plans cookin.

I just reread “The Lottery” and after I fell down a rabbit hole about it, I *need* to see the full production of the ballet it inspired in 1953. I’ve found some YouTube videos of different ballet companies, but uncertain how long the full ballet is for such a short story.

I finally made my move over here to Bluesky. Currently stoked after seeing that there is going to be a Guillermo del Toro Frankenstein with Oscar Isaac and many others I admire on Netflix in November. CanNOT wait.
