The Mere Wife
by Maria Dahvana Headley
Tacky Goblin
by T. Sean Steele
T. Sean's journal jumps and loops within time and space, and life doesn't so much happen to him as it happens around him. "The facts existed, or they didn't, whether or not I paid attention to them." His observations on life, and the rules of adulthood, are morbidly funny and ring with an oddball truth that fans of Welcome to Night Vale and Alice Isn't Dead will relish. --Cindy Pauldine, bookseller, the river's end bookstore, Oswego, N.Y.

The Girlby Victory Witherkeigh
Dear Reader, Girl. Athlete. Scholar. Scorned by her parents. Comforted by her demon. What if you were told from the moment you were born that you were evil? Using my Filipina/Pacific Islander heritage, I follow my main character, The Girl, as she grows up in Los Angeles with a secret rife with pre-colonial myths of gods and demons and the trials of growing up, creating a unique coming-of-age story of a first generation-born American. Enjoy--and keep an eye out this October 2024 for my second novel, just in time for spooky season. Victory Witherkeigh |
