C.J. Leede Horror from the High Desert

    • Performing Arts

Scotty talks to author C.J. Leede about going from a sci-fi and fantasy-reading medieval studies major who had "never read a horror novel in [her] life" to becoming the author of "Maeve Fly" (2023, Tor Nightfire), which is nominated this year for both a Splatterpunk Award and a Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a First Novel. C.J. talks about immersing herself in horror and transgressive fiction, learning to love her newly adopted city of Los Angeles, celebrating female monstrousness in her work, and more. She and Scotty also discuss their love of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show."
