We’re less than three weeks away from the release of my queer Gatsby re-imagining, In These Gilded, Ghostly Hearts, and needless to say, I’m super excited about it!
Something else I’m incredibly excited about: I’m going out on a book tour! And where might I be heading? Well, let me tell you!
First up, my launch party is on Tuesday, September 15th at 7pm at Riverstone Books in Pittsburgh! I’ll be in conversation with the amazing Kit Frick, author of I Killed Zoe Spanos and All Eyes on Us. Riverstone has done my last three book launches, so it always means the world to me that they’re supporting my work. Also, Riverstone is running the pre-order campaign for In These Gilded, Ghostly Hearts, so if you’d like a signed and personalized copy as well as an exclusive sticker, then please head on over here to get your copy!
Next up, on Saturday, September 26th, I’ll be returning to Doylestown for The Vampire’s Library Horror Bookfair at VAMPA, the Vampire Museum. The event will run from 11am to 4pm on Saturday, September 26th, and I’ll be joining an awesome group of authors including A.C. Wise, Laura Parnum, and Nicole M. Wolverton. There will be readings throughout the day, and Doylestown Bookshop will be on hand selling books! So come and hang out with us and celebrate the start of the fall season!
Moving onto the spookiest month of the year, I’ll be spending October 1st through the 4th in New Orleans as a featured author at Horror on the Mississippi! I’ve never been to Louisiana before, so I’m thrilled to be visiting for the first time! The three-day horror retreat is sold out, but there are still day passes available!
Then on Monday, October 5th, I’ll be in NYC at Astoria Bookshop. We’re still solidifying all these details, but I’ll be there with a few of my fellow authors at Creature, so this will most definitely be a very fun horror night!
On Saturday, October 10th from 6pm to 9pm, I’ll be in Lebanon, PA at The Haunted Whimsy for an evening of ghostly fun: The Green Light Summoning, a Gatsby-themed 1920s mystery event that will feature spooky food, live music, 1920s costumes, and more! This will be an immersive event that ties in with both my book and of course the original The Great Gatsby. Tickets will be going on sale soon, so keep your eyes peeled!
And finally, I’ll be doing a virtual event at Charis Books on October 14th at 7:30pm. This one will be a joint in-conversation with me and Quinn Connor; their new book, Your Beloved Remains, is absolutely stellar, so you’ll want to put it on your TBR as soon as you can. And be sure to RSVP for our event and support the always amazing Charis Books!
There’s a good chance I’ll be adding one or two more dates to my schedule down the road, but for now, this is my book tour for In These Gilded, Ghostly Hearts, and I’m absolutely thrilled with it! As always, I want to say again that I’m so very grateful for the chance to get out there in the book community and meet everyone. Thank you in advance to all the venues that are hosting me, and I hope to see some of you readers out there on my tour!
Happy reading!
