    Grace Reynolds on Neon Moon

    HOWDY! Happy bonus episode Friday! Grace Reynolds joins me to talk about Neon Moon, her slasher novella that is out now with Dark Matter Ink! We chat about y’allternative, country music, slasher kills, and managing heart and humor within the subgenre. Getting to talk to Grace always makes my day better, and this episode is no exception! I also want to point out, every podcaster’s worst nightmare happened on this recording in which my computer blue-screened halfway through. We were able to salvage the bulk of the interview, but Grace was such a reassuring presence while I crashed out, I am forever in her debt! If you want to keep up with her on social media or order a copy of Neon Moon, check out these links: * Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gravereynolds/?hl=en * To Order Neon Moon: https://bookshop.org/p/books/neon-moon-grace-r-reynolds/99258c84ee14b14e?ean=9781958598962&next=t This is a public episode.

    Abby Vail on Writhe

    Trigger warnings for this episode: Abby and I discuss some very important, but also dark topics surrounding the following - gun violence, school shootings, child abuse, and child neglect. We discuss her novel, Writhe, in detail which includes spoilers around the 38 minute mark so beware if you’d like to read before listening as well! Unpacking her debut novel, Abby Vail joins me to discuss Writhe which is available now from Sobelo Books! This discussion is near and dear to me as we cover topics that aren’t easy to cover. The lens that Abby approaches these things is so insightful and nuanced, and I am incredibly grateful for her honesty around this subject!

    CJ Leede on Headlights

    A novel that is near and dear to my heart (for some reasons discussed in this episode), Headlights by CJ Leede is the kind of book that feels like it can change a life. I sat down and unpacked it all with CJ, how it felt to write about something so large, the approach to capturing place, leaning into The Shining of it all, and so much more. Speaking with CJ is always an occasion that makes a day immensely better, and this conversation is no exception. Immensely grateful for her and her earnestness in this interview.
