So, in my tragic summer of really inconvenient unemployment, I am doing a lot of writing, and if you are interested, you can read my stuff here (please do!).
I wrote an Article about master short story writer, Shirley Jackson (who should be known by everyone, not just horror writers):
“I could live there all alone, she thought, slowing the car to look down the winding garden path to the small blue front door with, perfectly, a white cat on the step. No one would ever find me there, either, behind all those roses, and just to make sure I would plant oleanders by the road. I will light a fire in the cool evenings and toast apples at my own hearth. I will raise white cats and sew white curtains for the windows and sometimes come out of my door to go to the store to buy cinnamon and tea and thread. People will come to me to have their fortunes told, and I will brew love potions for sad maidens; I will have a robin…”
— Shirley Jackson (The Haunting of Hill House)
I also wrote an article about the artist EMA and her new album Past Life Martyred Saints and why it makes me think of that golden era for women rock artists: the early 90’s. Here’s a video:
