My young adult horror debut is about to turn one month old! That’s one month that you’ve been buying, reading, supporting, and listening to me scream about my dark, funny story about a girl’s disappearance during the Satanic Panic.
In that time, I’ve been busy sharing my thoughts in essays and interviews. Talking about my own relationship with the Satanic Panic. The importance of teen books that deal with difficult things like abuse. And how I am actually the last person you’d expect to pen a horror novel (and yet here we are).
