One of them knows where Caleb is. If Finn can learn which one, he’ll find Caleb. Or what happened to him. If he can’t... he might disappear next. What’s inside a girl? Only the Samanthas know. Coming 1.19.27 from Laughing Man House. Preorder in hardcover / paperback today!

When star swimmer Caleb disappears, it coincides with the arrival of the Samanthas: 3 identical foreign exchange students who may be more than they appear. One of them knows where Caleb is, but to find him, wannabe high school flatfoot Finn must trust either an old enemy or a dangerous new friend…

SPOILERS FOR SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY Really loved the movie, but that does make three recent superhero movies or shows (WW '84 and She-Hulk being the other two) where the female lead uses magic or their own powers to brainwash a male hero into physical intimacy they can't really consent to.

I think writing Brides in the Dark fundamentally changed my writing style. At least, it taught me I could put sappy stuff in the middle of the dark stuff I usually write. This is from SAMANTHAS (2027, Laughing Man House).

I don't think we give enough credit to how perfect a toy idea the Transformers were. You take a truck, something little kids were already playing with, and it turns into a great big guy who can punch people. And there's a bunch of them that all turn into different things. A fighter jet. A bulldozer.

I normally don't jump into current uproars or discourse, but as someone in the Query Trenches I'm mad about the "Shy Girl" debacle. This is not my first time querying (tho I'm furthest w/ this one) and I've notice a HUGE difference. It's harder, agents don't reply, they are overwhelmed & burnt out.

Book Review: Brides in the Dark by Jacob Steven Mohr
Brides in the Dark is a "modern fairy tale" that plays on a much older category of folktale: the Swanmay/Selkie/Other shapeshifter who must marry whoever stole the skin that enables them to change their shape. In this setting, men capture various kinds of shapeshifter fairy brides. One town goes into a forest to find their brides, another hauls their brides out of the sea. In Our Protagonist's town, men go up into the mountains, and lure their brides out of the air. (It is not explained why the men are kidnapping fairies to have their kids.

Wrinkled fingers tremble on the trumpet's valves. Endless summers with his boys, cheap gin and cigars. A hundred women, though he never forgot a name. Dresses twirling in the moonlight, bright as stars. Once, he'd known the sweetness of five mambos. Perhaps before the end, he might manage a sixth.
