Another October almost over. My debut novel is THE DEVOURERS is a genrefluid book, but with strong strains of horror running through it, if you're looking to cram in another read for the season.
My Lambda Award-winning debut novel THE DEVOURERS, a dark, queer, mythic realist tale about sex, love, violence, & shapeshifting, has finally surpassed 20k sales. Those may be rookie numbers to many authors, but for me, it's a big deal, even if not big money. Sincerest gratitude to my readers 🖤

For readers of Margaret Atwood, China Miéville, and David Mitchell comes a striking debut novel by a storyteller of keen insight and captivating imagination. LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD WINNER •...

I've written about my mom several times, so in her memory, I'd love if you read about her. Her Betty Crocker cookbook (though thankfully, not her parenting!) inspired parts of my first novel, Everything I Never Told You. I wrote about her, and it, here.
