FRANKLY FEMINIST now out!
"Mazel Tov: It's Pub Day" surrounded by stars and orange light rays. In the center is the cover for Frankly Feminist, which includes a stylised painting of a brown haired white woman holding a pomegranate and standing in front of a night sky

Lilith's first-ever book, Frankly Feminist, a curated collection of 40+ short stories from 45+ years of publications is officially out today from Brandeis University Press. This groundbreaking Jewish feminist short story collection, I am honored to say, includes my story “Street of the Deported,” which won first place in Lilith’s 2017 fiction contest. I love how “Street of the Deported” came out soon after my first novel Daughters of the Air came out and how this anthology is now being released the week after my second novel Dreams Under Glass is released: coincidence or something cosmic? Buy Frankly Feminist today from your favorite local bookstore!

Out Now: Evergreen: Grim Tales & Verses from the Gloomy Northwest

I am delighted to have a pair of short fairy tales in Evergreen: Grim Tales & Verses from the Gloomy Northwest, out now from Scablands Books! This beautiful foil-stamped anthology, edited by Sharma Shields and Maya Jewell Zeller, features an incredible roster of Pacific Northwest authors, such as Gary Copeland Lilley, Rick Barot, Shawn Vestal, Tess Gallagher, Ruth Joffre, Nicola Griffith, Kate Lebo, Elissa Washuta, and Lucia Perillo, to name just a handful, and has some wonderful illustrations as well—you can preview a couple of them, including one from my story "Moss Child," here. You can pick up a copy directly from Scablands Books, or at Atticus, Auntie's, From Here, and Wishing Tree Books in Spokane. If you're based in the Pacific Northwest, your local library might like to know about it! Here is the "Suggest a Title" form for Seattle Public Library; many library systems have similar forms.

Evergreen: Grim Tales & Verses from the Gloomy Northwest

I'm excited to have two fairy tales in Evergreen: Grim Tales & Verses from the Gloomy Northwest, a Scablands Books anthology edited by Spokane-based superheroes Sharma Shields and Maya Jewell Zeller. The (foil-stamped!) book releases November 2 (perfect season to cozy up with a book while it's drippy outside!), but discounted pre-orders are now available. Sharma shared a snippet of one of my tales on Twitter here. It's an honor to be in the same book with Elissa Washuta, Ruth Joffre, and so many other talented writers.
