I'm having coffee and listening to the opening of my book being read on the Books to the Ceiling podcast. It's surreal to listen to someone I don't know reading it aloud. And giving it her own noir-y twist! Thank you to Teresa Trent and Books to the Ceiling. If you'd like to listen: wp.me/pnaIT-dpu

So cool that Daniel A. Olivas's awesome Chicano Frankenstein is on this list of 15 Frankenstein Retellings in Town and Country Magazine! And selfishly I'm excited that my cover is one of the four they used in their graphic to crown the article.

The next writer I want to thank for blurbing my book is Bradley K. Rosen. I’ve known Brad ever since we sat side by side in Tom Spanbauer’s Dangerous Writing class. I'm in awe of his writing. Quirky, hilarious, sweet, sometimes sad, endlessly innocent, deceptively wise, full of off-kilter poetry...

I'm sorry I keep asking for help, but I literally have nowhere else to turn. I am doing my best to get back on my feet, both literally & metaphorically, but that will be exponentially harder if I lose my apartment. I desperately need $482 for rent & enough utilities to avoid shut off. Please.

The next person I’d like to thank for blurbing my book is the amazing Mo Daviau. Her novel Every Anxious Wave is my all-time favorite time-travel book. Its highly imaginative premise opens into a surprising, deep, human story full of Mo’s brilliant, dry humor... annieblooms.com/book/9781959...

I'm going to be really honest here, friends. I am struggling. I've been out of work since June, what little income I had coming in has dried up, & the job market sucks. Anything you can spare is appreciated & literally keeps me housed.
