Our upcoming novella, "Waxing Off," by @izzybuzzkill.bsky.social, is up on Kickstarter now. Transphobia and lycanthropy intertwine in this truly unique queer horror. Big thanks to @briannamalotke.bsky.social for the early review! 🌈📚 #booksky #indiepub #indiepress #pridewithabite #queerhorror

An advanced review for "Waxing Off" by E.E.W. Christman. The review is written by Brianna Malotke, author of “Fashion Trends, Deadly Ends” and “Death is a Tease.” The review reads "What a time to be a horror reader! Christman's take on werewolves is refreshing and delectable. I loved the interconnection between real life transphobia and fictional werewolf lore. Waxing Off is a tasty combination of monsters (human and supernatural), cult-like behaviors, gore in all the right places, and queer love. You'll be hooked from the beginning and craving more from the author when you finish."
