Shout-outs from Suzanne:

Shoutout to The Feminist Press in general and the good work they do, but in particular my friend Joey Vallese’s Queer Horror Anthology that is in progress and will be out in 2022. It's a nonfictional essay collection about being queer and what connection and echoes that has with horror film. 

Shoutout to my editors over at No Contact: Guarra Shekar, Eliot Alpern, and Natty Berry.
