Release of Crime Ink: Iconic Celebration

  • One More Page Books 2200 N Westmoreland St Arlington, VA 22213 (map)

I’ll be celebrating CRIME INK: ICONIC, the new queer crime fiction anthology I co-edited! With me: Cheryl A. Head (Times Undoing) + Diana Digangi (Last Chance Chicago).

Why this book? Because in 2023, 517 crime stories appeared in anthologies—and fewer than 1% were by LGBTQ+ writers. CRIME INK: ICONIC is our answer: 20+ sharp, surprising stories inspired by queer icons like James Baldwin, Oscar Wilde, Candy Darling, Laverne Cox, and Dolly Parton.

Join us for a lively discussion + book signing as we celebrate the power of queer voices in crime fiction. Hope to see you there!
