Everyone has a dragon to slay. What’s yours?
June 2017
Long Black Veil is now available in stores and on line! And an Audio book too!
The initial book tour frenzy for the novel is now complete, although I have a few events lined up for the summer. This weekend, June 10 and 11, I’ll be at the Chicago Book Expo, doing two events. And on June 21st–the night before my birthday–you’ll find me at one of my favorite independent bookstores, PRINT, in Portland ME.
I’ve left New York for the year and am now back home in Maine. Will circle back to Morningside Heights and Barnard College in time for Spring semester 2018.
