“The Conjuring Meets Little Women,” my original inspirations for “The Demonologists’ Daughters.” We got to visit the Orchard House on our trip to Concord. The Alcott family lived there from 1858-1877. Louisa May Alcott’s “Little Women” is set there and Greta Gerwig’s film version was shot there.

We decided to take “The Demonologists’ Daughters” out for night on the town in Boston. We ended up in a spot that has a special place in my main character’s heart. Because, you know, sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name.

What Paula White and Donald Trump have in common is not "faith" but shameless television grifting. The griftocracy developing fast.

I stand unequivocally, unwaveringly, and unapologetically with the American Historical Association and my colleagues. I stand for truth, humility, and transparency. History designed to fit your politics and spare your feelings is propaganda, not history.

A reality check on the reach of white Christian nationalism. White Christian nationalism is neither the best of us, nor the majority of us.
My latest, reflections on the new @prripoll.bsky.social survey of support for Christian nationalism in all 50 states.
