shameless self-promotion

This month we have a new issue of Fuckit, featuring my story, “And the Forest Sings of Secrets and the Dead.” This one’s a fun one. The theme for this issue is “How to Counter a Culture,” and I have always been weirdly fascinated with Puritans. Like many a young American lass, I went throughContinue reading “shameless self-promotion”

Shameless Self-Promotion!

Fuckit #10 (The Burnout is Real) is out and includes a short story by me, called “Two Old Ladies In a School Gym Lockup,” which title made the lovely husband look at me with That Look and say, “You’re pretty proud of that one, aren’t you?” Indeed, I am. Featuring a Glee reference and cameoContinue reading “Shameless Self-Promotion!”

Shameless self-promotion!

Fuckit vol 9, “Actual Fucking Things” is out, and for this one I made some visual art. I do not know why this one felt like the end of something, but it did. (It’s not; I have made a promise to myself to submit to this ‘zine every issue unless something catastrophic happens, and sinceContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion!”

Shameless self-promotion and other stuff

So, first of all, I have TWO pieces in the 6th volume of FUCKIT: a ‘zine. This issue’s theme is “Death to Cringe,” and I am quite excited to be a part of that. Those of you who enjoyed “There are No Lost Worlds” might be interested in “A (Lovely) Companion Piece,” wherein we learnContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion and other stuff”

Shameless self-promotion and hello, not dead

So I totally spaced on promoting the November issue of Fuckit, which contains “The Modern Eurydice: to Orpheus in the Autumn of the Plague Year,” so that came out. I got a little distracted by … I dunno, some political event. No, the other one. No, no–the one that happened right around the time theContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion and hello, not dead”

Shameless self-promotion!

It’s pub day for Stories We Tell After Midnight 2!  You can find my story, “Primary Manifestations” in this anthology of creepy, spooky stories. *** “Primary Manifestations” is a haunted house story.  I love haunted houses.  You can probably tell, as I’ve written, what, three stories now that involve them (four if you count theContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion!”

shameless self-promotion

You can find my untitled internet quiz parody in Fuckit issue 3, Vote, Motherfucker, Vote! Now, far be it from me to use that kind of vulgarity … … wait, hang on, I think Scott may have collapsed … Oh.  No.  He’s just on the floor laughing.  What’s that, honey?  Oh.  I’m being told IContinue reading “shameless self-promotion”

Woulou, part 2

Not raising money this time, just putting a story into the world.  Hope you enjoy.  Part One is here. After that, I was ready to sell my car to clear out the jungle in the back corner of the yard. Of course, it wouldn’t be that easy because the plants themselves weren’t on our sideContinue reading “Woulou, part 2”

Woulou, part 1

Not raising money this time, just sending a story out into the world.  Hope you enjoy. When my son, Morgan, was seven, we moved into a new house.  I couldn’t afford to buy a house, but there was a rental available in a pretty nice neighborhood for a ridiculously low price. You know where thisContinue reading “Woulou, part 1”
