Soft Skull gently asked me to send out one of those emails to my whole contact list and I cannot bear to do that. I think that’s acceptable for people who aren’t on social media, but otherwise it’s questionable. But people reading this signed up to get emails from me so sucks for you maybe!! (also perhaps I am wrong about the email thing.)
If you want to see me read, I am doing a small tour. 4 of these dates will be with Mesha Maren. There will be free lollipops and fortune tellers (the paper-folding kind you made when you were a kid).
Indianapolis will also be with Samantha Fain and Cecily Chan.
Franklin Park will be very exciting! Besides Mesha, I will also be reading with Nicolette Polek, Daisuke Shen, and Khaholi Bailey. I am pretty sure my videos will be showing too!
Providence will be with Erin Vachon.
Then I have two California dates:
Los Angeles, Skylight Books, Friday, August 2.
San Diego, Book Catapult, Saturday, August 3.
LA is with Sarah Gerard!
San Diego is for the reading series Small Press Nite, and I’ll be reading with Ana Carrete, Lily Hoang, and Michael Deagler.
If you want to review my book on Goodreads or Amazon, that would be cool. Rating and reviewing help people find your book blah blah.
Buying the book is cool too. You can do that at your preferred place here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/738579/you-are-the-snake-by-juliet-escoria/
Here is an interview I did with Charlene Elsby at The Millions.
Here is an interview I did with Barrie McIntyre at Write or Die.
Here is an excerpt on Electric Literature’s Recommended Reading, with a glorious intro by Ashleigh Bryant Phillips.
Also, Blake Butler talked about my book on his Substack and #5 made me tear up a lil.
Oh nice! I'm gonna be in town for your San Diego reading!
So cool! With Megan Boyle too! WOW!
