Recently I had the pleasure of chatting with Leza Cantoral on her podcast, Get Lit With Leza. We talked about body horror, sexuality, fairy tales, horror as creative catharsis, and my collection, Nightmares in Ecstasy.

You can listen to our conversation here!

This was my first podcast appearance and I think it went pretty well! I’m not usually comfortable talking about my work publicly, but the format of Leza’s podcast is so informal and relaxed that my stage fright (pod fright?) was unfounded. I told her Get Lit is essentially made up of a series of tangents. It’s a unique formula that contributes to the show’s playful atmosphere and originality. If you get the chance, be sure to check out the other episodes. She has spoken to some truly talented and interesting guests.
