Thank you @literarymama.bsky.social for talking with me. If you know someone who is between jobs & could benefit from a little humor and commiseration, please check out my memoir, Sad Sacked. The holidays are a particularly tough time to be out of work. If you're job hunting, I'm rooting for you!

It's launch day for A Different Type of Poison! When an author receives an invitation to discuss her dark campus thriller in her hometown, she quickly accepts, not realizing she may be walking into her scariest chapter yet. 😲 The ebook is 99 cents for a limited time!

Not every invitation is meant to be accepted. This one could be her last.

When a bestselling author receives an invitation to return to her hometown, she never suspects she may be walking into the most unsettling plot twist of her life.
