This is Pepper Jack. He’s a lovely dog I met in Harlem, New York today. He’s landed on tough times and was surrendered to the shelter.
I thought it would be lovely to use Twitter to find him a forever home. This is his story, he’s a gentle soul… (1/6) 🧵
Holding published over 20 novels and 200 short stories in her lifetime (!), and she was well-respected among her cohort. (Raymond Chandler called her “the top suspense writer of them all,” and Hitchcock was a fan.) And yet today, hardly anyone has heard of her. 2/3

As of today, there are about half a dozen books being sold on Amazon, with my name on them, that I did not write or publish. Some huckster generated them using AI. This promises to be a serious problem for the book publishing world. janefriedman.com/i-would-rat…

PSA: It's a novel, not a "fiction novel" b/c a novel already IS fiction. You're not Ken, getting away with "mojo dojo casa house."
Thrilled to have my work appear in the inaugural issue of Shirley Jackson Studies! Check out the issue online, including my essay on Hangsaman and mid-century crime fiction.
The first issue of Shirley Jackson Studies is now LIVE! "The Jackson Legacy" features an introduction from @ruth_franklin and brilliant articles by Anna Bartnicka, Ashley Lawson, @MegTothWrites, and Robert Zipser. We're so excited for you to read it.

With the @smithsonian’s ridiculous cancellation of this years Asian American literary festival, who should we be reading right now? Old, new, and yet to come? Drop names and titles here! And retweet too!!
Folks! My debut short story is coming out soon in @IdahoReview, and I couldn't be more thrilled! If you're into creepy midwest gothic babysitting stories (can we make this a genre?), get ready.
