With the coven, with the particular balance a group of women with strengths and differences provided, she was sure she could grow into someone better than she had been.

Finished reading The Splendid City today; I was very excited about it when I picked it up, but I can’t lie, it was kind of underwhelming :/ (it was by no means a bad book - I didn’t have to force myself to read it - it just didn’t meet my expectations and I’m a little disappointed)

My Favorite Bit: Karen Heuler Talks About A SLICE OFF THE DARK
Karen Heuler is joining us today to talk about her novel, A Slice off the Dark. Here’s the publisher’s description:
If you got a mysterious box that said, Do Not Open, would you open it? If your fingers revolted and wanted a different job, would you agree? If you came from a race of giants, or thought about becoming Death’s lover, or couldn’t get rid of a lover no matter how hard you tried, what…

While some short story writers struggle to fill one book, as she discusses in this exclusive interview about her latest story collection, "A Slice Of The Dark," Karen Heuler says she sometimes waits years to find just the right one for a story.

Strange Tales: Tartarus Press at 30, edited by Rosalie Parker, Tartarus Press, 2020. Limited edition, cover art by Marcela Bolívar, info: tartaruspress.com.
These eighteen entirely new stories have been brought together to celebrate the thirtieth year of Tartarus Press. Representing the best contemporary writing in the fields of the literary strange, supernatural, fantasy and horror, they range from the wry comic fantasy of Jonathan Preece’s ‘Great Dead American Authors Alive and Living in Cwmbran’, to the atmospheric horror of Andrew Michael Hurley’s ‘Hunger’. In ‘Grassman’ by Rebecca Lloyd, two sisters come of age during a village ceremony, while in ‘Meiko’ by J.M. Walsh, a mysterious guest upsets the equilibrium of a country house party. Mark Valentine’s ‘Other Things’ documents the romance and strangeness of private lore, while the search for a missing girl leads to a sinister discovery in D.P. Watt’s ‘The Wardian Case’. Dark family secrets are gradually uncovered in Angela Slatter’s ‘The Three Burdens of Nest Wynne’. Founded in 1990, Tartarus Press has become known for championing both classic and contemporary writers. The stories in this volume sit proudly within that tradition. All copies are signed by Rosalie Parker and Ray Russell.

If you’re in and around New York City, I’ll be reading from Light From Other Stars for the first time at KGB bar as part of the Trumpet Fiction reading series. So, you’ll get to hear it before anyone else.
It should be a fun evening of women scientists in fiction. From the event description:
While Orphan Black fans can’t get enough of science genius Cosima, there’s still a relative deficit of women scientists in modern lore—not so in this night of stories. Meet an astronaut, a DNA researcher, and a bridge engineer—all women and all characters you can find in three brand new books from Erika Swyler, Andrea Rothman, and Karen Heuler.
I’ll probably get all teary about science. I do that sometimes.
Come say hi, have a drink, and think about space stuff!
