Last night I dreamt that my mom broke into my house and tried to kill me... pretty painfully. At one point I referenced the film Carrie (your know, Carrie's mother), and my mom got all offended because she wasn't in it for the term religious fervor of it all.

Yeah....

TY!!!

I ❤️ seeing Bodies still get attention!!! I was just talking to someone a few weeks ago about your story in there!

I'm still so grateful to @sliceduppress.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to pull the anthology together! 2/2

I am so delighted to see BODIES FULL OF BURNING included in this article in The Lineup about women in horror. A) @rebeccarowland.bsky.social is one of the first anthology editors I ever worked with, & B) I'm in excellent company there! The writers who contributed to the anthology are fabulous & 1/2

It never fails to amuse me when I walk into the pilates studio I frequent and see my US Representative on a reformer in a group class. It takes all my willpower not to inundated her with questions.

I hear you loud and clear.

For sure. :cries:

That is a crime. A CRIME!!!!

There's a white button down blouse with giant sleeves that I saw at a shop in the Marais last time I was in Paris (last year), and I still kick myself for not buying it. Grrr.

The moral to the story, I suppose, is always buy the shirt.

the novella coming out in October with the oracle card deck, and getting to the 8ish gastrohorror & horror columns/articles I owe various people, I think it's my next project. At least I'll have a month or two to let the idea stew in my head. 2/2

About a decade ago my then-agent shopped around a YA horror novel I really liked but it ultimately got shelved. Lately I've been getting the yen to redraft it as more feminist version of itself, in the adult dark thriller vein...and incorporating an "own voices" component. When I'm done revising 1/

I would hope so!!!!

Sitting here waiting for a PT appointment, and while the recruiting wished me a Happy Jason Voorhees Day, two other people at the desk are talking-- one expressed shock that Friday the 13th is a film. They'd never heard of it.

Celebrating Women In Horror month? RSVP on the A Novel Idea website for Sunday's panel with three of my favorite Philadelphia writers (and ME)! See you there?

Ugh. This timeline is the worst.

Ha! Dare to dream.

It was 81 degrees at my house yesterday. It's snowing right now.

Yeah, but climate change is hoax.

My 17th and 18th books will release this year 🖤

One novel to make you shudder and one novel to make you cry, and both up for pre-order now—that's how we roll around here, bay-bee 😘

It's going to be a wild year of horror fiction.

Today's #sotd (details in alt text) is most definitely a skin scent in that I barely smell anything at all on me. If I really concentrate, I can kind of smell fresh-baled hay on a sunny day. Maybe. A little too quiet for me but pleasant enough. #perfumesky

Europe's most romantic city isn't Paris or Venice Forget Paris and Venice for an intimate getaway, as there's another city that has been ranked as the most romantic in Europe, with rooftop bars to catch the sunset and a serene boating lake

Apparently Madrid has been named Europe's most romantic city. I do love Madrid, but I'm not sure I agree--that said, I've only been there in the cold, & I stayed on a very busy street. The obvious solution is that I have to return. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well. My morning has started with accidentally dumping a 32 oz mug of scalding tea on my feet and kitchen floor (luckily my feet only got a splash or two). I hope this is not indicative of the day to come.

Learned a new word today: sloppergänger.

If a.i. uses your words and arguments, and talks for you, you have created a virtual #sloppergänger echoing you.

Ha! I love that. 🤩

Thanks for the love, Basile!!

I continue to insist that this anthology is a totally cathartic read, whether you've ever experienced menopause or not. It's also insanely empowering in many ways.

TABLE MANNERS: A Hunger Like Hers — Macabre Daily Nicole M. Wolverton returns with her 4th installment of the phenomenal "TABLE MANNERS" column, illustrating the gastronomically sinister delights in horror past and present!

In honor of Women's History Month & International Women's Day, this month's Table Manners column is all about Final Girls turning the Final Girl trope on its head. More Good For Her and less damsel in distress....

International Ballet Classique

International Ballet Classique, and Villanova Theatre in Delco alone (and I know I'm missing a few options). For some of these, you can get tix for as low as $12. Support the performance arts wherever you live if you can spare a few bucks to see live shows. 3/3

as $12, Koresh Dance Company tickets start at around $33, and Curtis Opera Theater tix start at around $35. Philly has a TON of super affordable live fine arts performance options--and if you live in the burbs, there's Swarthmore Players Club, Hedgerow Theater, the Colonial Playhouse, 2/3
