Lost in a Book
A quick and dirty Kelli Owen Q&A by Kathy Finfrock over on her Lost in a Book website.
Learn about the characters from Teeth and the importance of purple mimeograph paper from my youth…
Women in Horror Month… the hangover
So February was Women in Horror Month. Did you promote scary creepy horror creating women? Did you read them? Watch them? Offer them sacrifices?
Here’s a brief summary of the places and ways I participated in the yearly event… and I’m posting it now, in March, because it shouldn’t be on your mind during February only. You should always be aware of us… and maybe a little afraid.
— Promote Horror did a lovely quick little interview with many of us, here are my answers to those questions.
— I popped on over to Stephen Kozeniewski’s page (Manuscripts Burn) for a quick and dirty Q&A, here are my answers to those questions.
— And there was an essay… It didn’t get printed. It was voted “a bit harsh.” Part of me is a little proud of that. The other part of me wants to say, “Oh yeah? Here, hold my beer…” On the upside, it sounds like it may have found a home and will be seen outside of the constraints of February and Women in Horror Month. It might be June, just because. I’ll let you know.
Meanwhile, check out the two above. For those interested, most of my interviews and other external adventures have been posted on the Press page. Enjoy!
Among the Stacks
As part of The Gal in the Blue Mask’s Halloween Extravaganza, there was an interview.
I talked about my quirks, my fears, all kinds of random crazy things… Check it out to learn things about me you maybe didn’t know.
…and when you’re done, check out the rest of them. There are over 70 interviews just for the Halloween theme, then there are many many more. Bookmark it. It’s a good place to have handy on those lunch breaks!
20 Essential Crime and Horror Crossovers
According to Max Booth III, “Life is terrible but at least we still have books.” And in celebration of that, he has an article on CrimeReads, in which he guides you through 20 essential crime/horror crossovers. It’s a helluva list, and I’m honored to be part of it…
Kelli Owen’s FLOATERS
I’m a strong advocate that there are never enough lake monster stories in the horror genre. Have you ever stared at a lake in the middle of the night? Anything can be hiding inside. You don’t know. Kelli Owen takes this concept and runs with it in Floaters. Sometimes corpses wash up from Lake Superior, but also sometimes the terrifying creature responsible for the corpses washes up, too. A detective, medical examiner, and reporter team up to hunt down a beast that should not exist. I recommend this one for fans of lake monsters and small-town legends. It’s a fun ride.
Check out the entire article here, subscribe to the Crime Reads newsletter or stalk them on facebook, and of course, show Max Booth III some stalking love as well.
Six Toe Press interview
“Kelli Owen talks being a Nerdy Klutz, how that impacts her zombie apocalypse plan, and what a vampire story has to do with prejudice”
Thus is the headline for the interview I did with ToeSix press, now available on their site in issue #17.
