New intro time! I’m Clare Edge! I’m an author (and witch).

About my books!
Middle Grade: ACCIDENTAL DEMONS 😈& MIXING MAGICS ✨
Diabetic blood witch who conjures demons when she tests her blood sugar!
Young Adult: NATURAL SELECTION 🐻
Speculative thriller that’s Jennifer’s Body x “I choose the bear”
The cover of ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by Clare Edge showing a thirteen year old girl with wavy red hair pulled up into a bun. She wears a red sweatshirt with Celtic designs on the sleeves and hem. She holds a white, fluffy kitten in one arm and a demon is on her shoulder, it has purple fur, acid green eyes, and a corkscrew tail. To her left is a small, yellow demon with huge eyes, a wide mouth, and spinning wings. Behind her is a stretch of deep green and blue pine trees and in the sky is an ominous cloud that just might also be the outline of a wolf-like grin. The title is written in bold gold and orange letters and above it is the quote, “Full of magic, adventure, and riotous fun.” From New York Times bestselling author A. F. Steadman author of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief. The cover of MIXING MAGICS by Clare Edge. Ber, a diabetic witch, is front and center. She is chubby, with bright red hair and a round face. She wears a teal sweater and blue pants. An insulin pump is clipped to her pocket. She raises one hand in the air, and a swirl of bright magic threads from the blood drop on her finger. To her right is her diabetic alert dog, Clío, a ginger dog with a pointed nose and fluffy tail. To her left is a Dismember demon, which appears as a cloud of swirling mist with ominous eyes. In the background is a looming purple shadow with a sly grin. The cover fades from purple toward the top to pink at the bottom. A temporary cover for Natural Selection by Clare Edge. The top half is a bear alert sign that has been clawed (presumably by a bear) and the bottom half is the eyes and forehead of a girl with dark eyes and dark hair. There is a kiss mark on a piece of paper that bears the title. Above it is another scrap of paper that reads: unofficial cover, official vibe.

Well this is BEYOND cool! In the
@publisherswkly.bsky.social Global Rights report email snuggled between bestseller Roshani Chokshi and DOUBLE Newbery winner Erin Entrada Kelly!?!?! Mind. Blown.

(if you saw the first version of this where I spelled Newbery wrong...no you didn't)
New projects this week include Roshani Chokshi’s next YA novel, The Swan's Daughter: A Possibly Doomed Love Story, in which Prince Arris, in hopes of finding a non-murderous bride, agrees to a royal tournament of bachelorettes, and strikes a deal with a veritas swan maiden who can separate truth from lie; Natural Selection by Clare Edge, a horror-tinged YA speculative thriller centering on three girls who share a name (and a secret), and whose lives go up in flames when a grizzly starts picking off known abusers in their secluded mountain town; and Fatal Glitch by Erin Entrada Kelly and Eliot Schrefer, a middle grade horror series pitched as Black Mirror meets Goosebumps, in which each standalone story features kids in frightening circumstances, facing off against some form of twisted modern technology.

🔥🔥🐻 NEW BOOK 🐻🔥🔥

I’m in my thriller era!! And I’ve got to say—at this particular cultural moment—sinking my teeth into a book where abusive men literally get eaten by bears has been cathartic AF.

(Memes by billymurphyart on insta)
Image of pale skinned feminine hand on mossy log and bear alert sign ripped by claws. Ripped paper with text scrawled on it reads: I will always choose the bear and I sold another book!!! Publisher’s weekly announcement surrounded by aesthetic images. Announcement reads: Krista Marino at Delacorte Press has acquired, in a six-figure, four-house auction, Natural Selection, by Clare Edge (Accidental Demons). Pitched as Jennifer’s Body meets “I choose the bear,” this horror-tinged YA speculative thriller tells the story of three girls who share a name (and a secret) whose lives go up in flames when a grizzly starts picking off known abusers in their secluded mountain town. Publication is set for summer 2026; Jennifer Azantian at Azantian Literary Agency did the deal for North American rights.  Under the announcement, text reads: Grin and bear it? Fuck that. They’d rather burn it all down. Line drawing of a bear’s face with text that reads: I am not very demure. I will cause a scene. Art credit: billymurphyart Illustration of a bear with an ax and text that reads: Violent Thoughts. Surrounded by comments from early readers about how much they hate a character named Kevin. A LOT. They hate him a lot. Art credit: billymurphyart

This is going to be a hot take, but I don’t think community town halls should be policed by privately hired n@zi militias. Might just be me tho.

This is why we choose the bear. Bears don’t have zip ties and concealed weapons and wives cheering them on. Bears don’t call you “little girl” and have their n@zi goons drag you from your seat for…checks notes…speaking.

I heard the NEA is only considering proposals related to 1776 & the USA’s 250th birthday & I was feeling intensely patriotic, so I’m printing these really big posters inspired *directly* by the Founding Fathers

The cut was carved from the masthead of a 19th century newspaper
Two large posters on off white paper with blue ink reading: NO TYRANTS! & NO KINGS! In large wood type font. There is a large image cut of a wooden printing press with a banner of text above it reading “THE TYRANTS FOE THE PEOPLES FRIEND”
