Hoping the algorithm is kind today, but I have a new book coming out with Soho Press!

It's got Gothic Horror 👻🏚️+ Mary Shelley ✍️ + South Asian POV🤎+ much more!

[Leila Siddiqui @leilawrites]

I'm so excited to announce that I'm now repped by @lanewriteswords at @arthouselit. I'm so grateful Lane believed in my work and can't wait to go on this journey together!

THE CHOSEN AND THE BEAUTIFUL x MEXICAN GOTHIC - a South Asian farm girl vies to become the next big silent film star with the help of an evil jinn. But what if the true monsters live within the Hollywood machine? #pitdark #A #H #LH #BIPOC #OWN #POC

Sex + Drugs + Silent Films + Body Horror = what happens when a South Asian farm girl vies to become the next big silent film star with the help of an evil jinn. #Pitdark #A #H #LH #BIPOC #OWN #POC

A first-generation South Asian farm girl in 1920's California schemes and murders her way to a Hollywood contract with the help of a malevolent jinn. But what if the true monsters live within the Hollywood machine? #pitdark #A #H #LH #BIPOC #OWN #POC #silentfilms

This is my first twitter pitch even in a long time -- I'm on the hunt for new representation 😭 Here goes nothing!

South Asian folklore meets the scandalous Hollywood of the 1920s where a haunted seamstress vies to become the next big silent film star – with the help of a malevolent jinn – at any cost. #pitdark #A #H #LH #BIPOC
