Author Rebecca Baum (Lifelike Creatures) discusses her new horror novel, The Brood, with The Writers Lab founder, Nitza Wilon. Enjoy a discussion of The Brood, a feminist body horror with elements of eco-horror, a dash of folk horror, and a slew of periodical cicadas. Rebecca and Nitza will dive into inspiration, story mechanics, and character development while also examining why the horror genre is ideal for exploring uniquely female experiences and anxieties. A fascinating blend of horror and magical realism, this spine-tingling thriller explores the complex relationship between women, their bodies, and the natural world. The event will include a reading from The Brood and audience Q & A. Light refreshments will be served!
