My 17th and 18th books will release this year 🖤 One novel to make you shudder and one novel to make you cry, and both up for pre-order now—that's how we roll around here, bay-bee 😘 It's going to be a wild year of horror fiction.

Top: the cover art of This Movie Doesn't End the Way We Want by Hailey Piper, art by Julia Lloyd, coming from Titan Books on September 15th.
Text besides it: in 1994, three girls go to the movies. Only one comes out. 30 years later, the movie isn't done with her.

Bottom: the cover art of She Isn't Herself Tonight by Hailey Piper, art by Caroline Johnson, coming from Saga Press on October 27th.
Text besides it: alien abductions, a break-up from hell, and what you become when your worst enemy is yourself.

i love 2 receive emails from fans

Message:
Emily, I recently bought your book Horror for Weenies. I just started reading the book, and have gotten as far as Night of the Living Dead (1968). I enjoyed reading your synopsis, but take exception to your allegations that the movie focused so much on race relations. Duane Jones was excellent in this movie. He absolutely was the best actor and strongest of the characters. I've seen the movie several times. I've always been impressed by the fact that Jones was the only black actor in the movie, and not a single reference is made to his race. I can believe that Romero casted Jones because of his talent, and without any other agenda in mind.
You suggest that the movie is "black man vs the police" and "black man vs white women." I think you're reading certain things into this movie. Duane Jones later appeared in an absolutely terrible movie called Ganja and Hess. This movie had a black director. It was that director that wasted Duane Jones' great talent.

The Polari Prize issued a statement saying it believes its longlistees can hold “different positions on substantive issues.” This is like long listing a racist with authors of color then telling everyone it’s a mere “different position on a substantive issue”. Trans people are a fact. Not an “issue”
