Pub day for How to Fake a Haunting is a little over four months away, so I’ll be posting some fun early praise for the novel as well as giveaways, preorder campaigns, and reviews as October 7th creeps ever closer! 🏡🕯️🪰🪞👻🏚️

If you feel a desire for beautiful sentences and (justified) feminine rage, I highly recommend this one: When Women Were Dragons. It’s sweet yet politically charged and scratches an itch.

When Women Were Dragons by Kelly Barnhill. Cover photo. Excerpt from the book in which they are talking about the government cover-up of dragons but it’s also an allegory for the current US government’s attack on science.

House Republicans passed their bill that’d rip health insurance from millions and take food assistance away from millions including households with kids as young as 7 in the largest Medicaid and SNAP cuts in history - while giving giant tax cuts to the rich. Thread on the next steps of the process.

HELLO! Times, they are a dire, so forgive my gentle interruption where I ask that if you’ve read STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS — or any book by any author! — it’d be great if you left a review of it somewhere. And tell friends! Tell family! Tell the whole internet! Tell a random bird! Birds like books too.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

One week, the staircase appears. I am obliged in the midst of the chaos and fuckery of our current era to remind you to preorder THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS from, ideally, your favorite indie bookstore, because indies rule. Also, there's Bookshop-dot-org, Kobo, Libro-dot-fm! Please and thank you!

THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS book cover without its cover text -- it's a creepy image of a spiral staircase in the woods connected to nothing, ascending to nowhere, and on the railing is a crow or blackbird, and it's saying in a word bubble, SOON. The image is cast in a jaundiced haze except for a square of black and white with a blue line in the center that was an accident of the image when editing but I thought "hey that's neat" and I kept it, oh well. At the bottom is the text 4/29/25 indicating the date of the book's release. The cover is by THE BOLAND DESIGN COMPANY. Published by Del Rey Books

If they can do this to one group of people, they can do it to anyone, including you, especially if they find a way to suck up any money left behind. (And yes, you should care even if it's not happening to you, but a lot of people don't until they're a target, so best to bring that truth home now.)

The Social Security Admin, at the direction of DOGE, has begun knowingly adding living people to SSA’s death records — the Death Master File (DMF) — by assigning them false “dates of death” to “terminat[e]” their “financial lives.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...
