This copaganda article is awesome! It starts with imagining that The Purge and Training Day exist in the same cinematic universe.
I have a new article in @CTCJournal on the enchantments of copaganda. It's part of @GaetaAmy and @AlexAdams5's special issue on militarization & pleasure: https://t.co/OWZy4GMgsc

Love this thoughtful piece by @KaylaKumari about “How to Be Eaten” for @autostraddle
“How To Be Eaten” takes classic fairytales and a Bachelor-like reality show and twines them into a fresh tale of wronged women. Read more about the novel in @KaylaKumari’s review.

Taped these quotes by @neilhimself & @AnneRiceAuthor on my wall, and re-read them often as I wrote HOW TO BE EATEN.

How to Be Eaten engages with true crime tropes. This article I wrote for CrimeReads is about other creators who interrogate the genre in smart & interesting ways. @yourwrongabout @AlexisSchaitkin @rachmonroe
Books that engage with the tropes of true crime while also interrogating them.

You can write novels all kinds of ways! Great examples of unique structures from @TriciaLockwood @AmyTan @tokarczuk_olga @OlgaRavn @BernardineEvari & others
Maria Adelmann (@ink176) recommends fiction that creates its own shapes.

"Saint, Michalski and Adelmann share a certain feminist outlook in these three literary retellings. And while their perspectives vary, they all focus more on how women learn to live their lives rather than on the wrongs they have endured." https://t.co/bUxL6EXMyS

"Elektra," "Darling Girl" and "How to Be Eaten" reimagine Greek myth, "Peter Pan" and various fairy tale characters.
