Cool. When we accept that women are capable of terrible things we're a bit closer to accepting women as human beings, not simply creatures who nurture.

Now available in bookstores and libraries everywhere! The October Film Haunt is my debut novel and a love letter to horror films and all of us who carry them in our hearts. And, if I may say so, pretty damned scary.

Sappier stuff after I visit a bookstore.

The Kindle edition of IF YOU KNEW ME is only $3.99.

"Miskowski’s typically pristine prose visits Megan Abbott and Gillian Flynn territory, and man is it compelling... Dark and hip and funny. HIGHLY recommended." - Polly Schattel, author of Shadowdays

"Goodall discovered that chimps used tools, created complex societies and could be so aggressive they could even kill one another.

"This suggested that chimps and humans are likely to have common ancestors - and was ground-breaking information."

Time to sing the praises of Caroline Teagle Johnson, who designed the cover for IF YOU KNEW ME. It's eye-catching but more than that, because she captured the central idea with an image of a bee drawn irresistibly to a flower, only to be impaled on a cactus spine. Happy reading, right? 🥰 I love it.

The latest edition of my newsletter is live, as well as a giant ass picture of the cover of THE SMALL HOURS. One day I'll learn how to resize pics, but today ain't the day.

One time, after a woman I knew kept ranting at my friends in discussion threads and refused to stop when I asked politely, I noted that when she posted on her own timeline, no one ever responded. I said she was trying to steal an audience. She called me the c-word and blocked me. Such a relief.
