Throwback Thursday combined with AWP FOMO. Last year at AWP I was signing a contract for DOLL PARTS (trying to keep the secret while celebrating big time). I met up with so many friends and loved every minute. I’m not there this year but plan on living it up in 2026 for sure.

Teaching near the bio labs, looking for inspiration for a new story—I think I found it. But for real, why does this bring me so much delight?

Today I did a thing I never do: talk to my students about my book. I showed them the image online and even though I was so nervous & I mimicked puking in my mouth, they applauded. I didn’t have anything big to say except look, it’s possible. I did this thing. Anything is possible

I am delighted and honored to see Doll Parts mentioned alongside so many amazing books: 72 of Summer’s Hottest New Mysteries & Thrillers (from Goodreads). It’s going to be a great summer for thrillers! 🖤

It’s a story about friendship. And loss. And the stories we tell about women after they’re gone. Add in Sylvia Plath, an all-women’s college, hauntings, and 90s vibes, you’ve got Doll Parts. Enter to win one of 10 copies through June 15 on GR! 👻🖤🍰 #5amwritersclub

It is impossible to fully express how grateful and excited I am for this blurb from Samantha Downing. Her propulsive thrillers have kept me up late too many times to count. Check out all all her novels, especially her latest, Too Old For This (out on August 12).

I have now misspelled “thank” as “Tjank” so many times (fat thumbs, old eyes) that my phone autocorrects to the misspelling.
