Teaching Willa Cather’s “Paul’s Case” for the first time this week. As my beloved Grandma Alice would have said, Jesus H. Christ on a cracker! Is this story perfect, or am I imagining it?

Jesus take the wheel... 😬😅😨😂 #redrum #kubrik #kubrikvibes #writer #writingcommunity #saturdaymood #saturdayvibes #saturdaymood #thisisthepartofthemoviewhereidie

Folks! My debut short story is coming out soon in Idaho Review, and I couldn't be more thrilled! If you're into creepy midwest gothic babysitting stories (can we make this a genre?), get ready.

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!!

I mean, what cat actually sits like this on a couch?

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.

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."

High School Horror • Coming to Criterion Channel September 1! ✨

Nooooooo. 🥺

Nerding out at the Brooklyn Book Festival. 💕

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) 🧵

Feeling seen.

In case anyone wants to check out the story I just published in the Saturday Evening Post! The Birds of 2020 saturdayeveningpost.com/2024/08/the-bi…

So this happened! So grateful to have a published with the amazing Pithead Chapel.

Solidarity to cinema workers!!
