Recently, my friend Mari Talkin and I sat down for a lengthy and highly enjoyable chat for her fantastic new podcast TALKIN STORIES.

We covered a range of topics, including all the crazy jobs I’ve had in my life, my love of dark and horror fiction, and why I think horror is a powerful medium for social change. I went on an extended rant about gatekeepers sanitizing queer YA, rhapsodized about the genius of THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS by Stephen Graham Jones, and even got to discuss my own work and share what’s coming up next for me.

With special guest appearances from Vincent Price and the great Julie Larios. Check it out!
