Thanks to all asking where they can get a signed copy of my book! Conveniently enough, I work in a bookstore, so: https://t.co/RwfLS8W1Ak!

I got some really, really good news last month. Very humbled to finally be able to share it now. Thank you, @RACStLouis, for helping make this the year I finish my second book🤞. https://t.co/AeruT2WbqQ

Would fund a scholarship to train the audiobook narrators of meta fictional novels by Latinx authors to pronounce “Borges,” because in my weirdly extensive experience, zero of them know how.

#43: This book is like a medical experiment, in a good way: a big hunk of Left Hand of Darkness sutured together with scraps from The Handmaid's Tale and The Female Man, along with a heavy… https://t.co/xDpAqzNoU5

#42: This was a good one to follow on the heels of Heartland: a story that could be grouped in the category of familial abuse and mental health narratives, but that bucks against the edges… https://t.co/qRGpg1XcVj

#38. Wow, wow: this one's a stunner. I very rarely read books on the strength of blurbs and buzz alone, but a bonkers number of brilliant writers I know personally (and a few whose work I… https://t.co/KjDAlK4lFb

#6: Cormac McCarthy is probably my favorite living writer, and I've been diligently saving a few of his earlier books for years to read gradually as a treat. This one just seemed like a… https://t.co/16IcO84QbO

5: I struggled a little bit with this memoir at moments, largely for reasons that aren't the author's fault at all—it's 100% not her bad that the publishing landscape right now is so… https://t.co/5DFAsKxsQO

#4: People have been recommending this book to me for years, likely because it hits on more than a few of my bulletproof kinks: ontological horror, true crime tie ins, Cleveland. It also… https://t.co/9zfxsETkob

#3: This was a hell of a book to read the same week we got a puppy. (Also a weird one to read directly after Outline; so many essayistic first person women writing instructor narrators!)… https://t.co/S0T7t5iWni

[Kea Wilson @KeaMarieWilson]

#2: Not precisely a resolution, but one of the things I've been meaning to do for years is to read more books in series. I've been saving up the Outline trilogy for years so I could read… https://t.co/69lPK0rpp8

Not a book I’ve read lately, but hands down the book I’ve read the most times through...my book, We Eat Our Own is out in paperback today! ✨✨ Thank you to everyone who has or will read… https://t.co/a7v2UoYyTH

#1. The Incendiaries is part campus novel, part cult novel, part globe-arching social novel, part painful not-love story. Those pieces shouldn't fit together as well as they do here, but I… https://t.co/BBJ9ZVXlYH

I haven't always thought of my book as a horror novel, but I'll take it if I can end up on a list as killer as this one. ❤️ Thanks, @vulture. https://t.co/BJfsGJwP8e

better (way!) late than ever: I was super happy to hear that WEOO was reviewed in one of my childhood favorite horror mags, @RueMorgue, in the March/April 2017 issue! Doubly happy it's sharing space with my new favorite woman-directed cannibal film, Raw. https://t.co/zufBdwUctY

I remain mildly allergic to twitter, but I'm back quick to say how amazing it was to talk to the students at Webster Groves High's @AllWriteWGHS festival, and how totally and completely floored I was by junior Emma Sellers' incredible painting of me and my book cover. ♥️♥️

[Kea Wilson @KeaMarieWilson]

I had the most fun talking to the Rumpus about bookselling and surveillance. https://t.co/qMTxfGwUwP
