So, I’m guessing dystopian books are coming back with a vengeance? Or are we just calling it contemporary fiction now?

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

And we’re back. Here’s what I’ve been working on:
NINTH HOUSE x FRANKENSTEIN
When 22-yr-old necromancer, Aven Ivy, botches her sister’s resurrection, she joins a secret society at her med school to gain the power to fix her. Little did she know her fate would be tied to a beautiful enemy. 💀

I feel like most authors don't rly want Stephen King levels of stardom, where we can't grab a meal w/o people crying at the table. Most of us just want to support our families, afford health care, have 30 people show up to a book signing, and write books that mean something to those who need them.
