I’m standing against a plain light wall, holding a copy of Intergalactic Feast at chest height so the colorful space-themed cover faces the camera. I’ve got long, dark hair, and I’m wearing a navy lace top, light jeans, and red lipstick, looking directly at the camera with a small smile.

INTERGALACTIC FEAST is out in North America!

It’s the sequel to Interstellar MegaChef, with more Serenity Ko shenanigans, more secrets sneaking up on Saras… and all the food in the galaxy πŸ©πŸš€

I’m super excited to be sharing this book with you!

A 🧡 of gratitude! But first…

A graphic of the book HOME SICK against a moody grey background of farmed fields and a dark treeline. The book has a Publisher Marketplace Buzz Books sticker on it. The author is very proud of this. Next to the book is a quote reading "Beyond a shadow of a doubt one of the best horror books you can pick up in 2026 and beyond." Beneath the quote is the quoted author's name "Johanna van Veen author of Blood on Her Tongue."

An exceedingly kind blurb from Johanna van Veen for HOME SICK. I had the pleasure of chairing for Johanna's first book, My Darling Dreadful Thing, at Cymera festival in 2024. I haven't chatted so much about bog bodies before or since.
