Summer Update!
Thanks to everybody who keeps signing up.
A few things: AUDREY’S DOOR got a great review from Black Static Magazine. Check it out if you can.
I’m going to be a guest of honor at two conventions next year (along with some other very cool people it’ll be a pleasure to join):
World Horror Convention, April 28- May 1 in Austin, Texas. If you’re interested, you can register here: http://whc2011.org/registration/
Northeastern Writers’ Conference (NECon), July 21-24, Bristol, RI. Registration is currently for people who’ve attended in the past, but will open up shortly.
Stories, stories, stories:
My story “Independence Day” is available from PS Publishing. It’s one of my favorites.
Thrillers: 100 Must Reads, edited by David Morrell and Hank Wagner, is now out. The thriller genre’s biggest authors all contributed essays, and I’ve got one in there about Robert Louis Stevenson.
Glass Eye Pix will be producing a radio play I wrote entitled, “Is This Seat Taken?” As well as dircting his own short play, JT Petty, happily, has agreed to direct “Is This Seat Taken.”
My story “Are You Trying to Tell Me This is Heaven?” is due out in John Joseph Adams’ anthology THE LIVING DEAD 2 is due out from Nightshade books in September. You can preorder it here. Other contributers include: Kelly Armstrong, Max Brooks, Cherie Priest, and David Wellington.
I wrote my first hard science fiction story, and it’s slated for publication in October. More news on that to come.
Finally, my husband JT Petty’s terrifying classic, S&Man, is finally available on DVD. You can preorder it from Amazon.com, complete with director’s commentary, and a cameo from yours truly.
That’s it for now. Hope all is great!

Just started “Audrey’s Door”…great stuff! Been a long time since a haunted house novel grabbed me with its details. I can almost feel the dust in that apartment
Keep up the good work. Between you and Sarah Pinborough, I’m actually starting to believe there’s hope for women in horror beyond Anne Rice, Shirley Jackson and Poppy Brite.
