Upcoming Appearance

Hello, All.

I hope everyone is doing as okay as possible in this new year.

I have a virtual appearance coming up in February that I wanted to let you know about. I'll be a panelist at Boskone, a local area sff con that is going virtual this year due to the pandemic. Because it's virtual that means anyone anywhere in the world can attend and the membership cost is lower. Convention details can be found at boskone.org. The con dates are February 12-14th.

I'll be on the following panels:

The Transformative Power of Women in Horror
Lovecraft Country
The Exorcist (book)
The Representation of LGBTQ+ in Popular Culture

Hope to see you there!

Book Launch!

Hello, Everyone!

I hope you all had a good Thanksgiving, if it's a day you celebrate.

I'm writing here to let you know I have a new story out in an anthology. My story, The Monsters We Become, has been published in the latest collection by the New England Horror Writers, Wicked Women: An Anthology of the New England Horror Writers. This anthology is written entirely by women and edited by a woman.

Here is my story's synopsis:

Since childhood, a young woman has left offerings to the monster in the woods. A discovery about her troubled, abusive mother reveals the monster isn’t in the woods, but something else is.

I'm really proud of this story and I worked really hard on it so I would love it if you all could read it, review it, add it to your Goodreads shelves, and/or share it on social media. Any little bit helps.

Thank you and stay safe!

Jennifer
