Join us for a Zoom discussion with authors and best friends, H.E. Edgmon & Andrew Joseph White as we celebrate their book releases! The Spirit Bares Its Teeth (September 4th) is a YA historical horror novel which follows an autistic trans boy in alternate history Victorian London who is sent to a finishing school/asylum for 'troubled girls' that's haunted by the ghosts of murdered residents. Godly Heathens (November 28th) is a YA contemporary fantasy novel which follows a nonbinary Seminole teen who finds out they’re a reincarnated god from another world -- and that other gods from their pantheon seek to kill them, once and for all.
There will be an audience Q&A towards the end of the program. This program will be recorded and posted on our YouTube channel after this event.
This program is sponsored by the Pollard Memorial Library Foundation.
About the authors:
H.E. Edgmon is an author of queer speculative fiction across genres. Once a stray dog in the rural south, he now makes his home in the Pacific Northwest with a family of his own design. Haunted and hopeful, his work aims to offer levity without flinching from hard truths. In his writing and his daily life, H.E. will always prioritize the pursuit of an Indigenous future, the safety of our most vulnerable, and making a terrible joke whenever possible. His debut series, THE WITCH KING duology, is out now, and his next book, the highly anticipated GODLY HEATHENS, releases November 28, 2023.
Andrew Joseph White is a queer, trans author from Virginia, where he grew up falling in love with monsters and wishing he could be one too. He received his MFA in Creative Writing from George Mason University in 2022. Andrew writes about trans folks with claws and fangs, and what happens when they bite back. He is the New York Times and Indie Bestselling author of Hell Followed With Us (2022) and newly released The Spirit Bares Its Teeth (September 2023).
