Interested in celebrating spooky season with your middle grader (or anyone who likes MG fiction)? May I suggest my scary but not too scary PRESS 1 FOR INVASION? Kirkus liked it; I hope you will too! Check out reviews, an excerpt, and pick up a copy here!

So, so grateful for our public libraries: it's amazing to see how many copies of PRESS 1 FOR INVASION are coming into - and being checked out of! - them. If you want a copy for yourself, get it here; but asking your local library to buy a copy is huge, too!

...about the parlous state of UP publishing, of course, as anything else....)

I'm actually wondering what this Anthropic settlement may end up doing for the bottom line of university presses for a year or two - my guess is that, taken across the board, even 1500 dollars per book, when a ton of the published books have been lifted, may make a difference.

I just taught this movie in my American horror film class - it's great and, I think, a very important moment in the whole story

I love the Universal monsters and I love Abbot & Costello, and even I think this movie ended up being far better than it had any right to be.

A sincere question for legal experts on copyright, which I'm definitely not: what does this actually mean?
