Creator Interview: Tiffany Michelle Brown

On this very special episode, Nikki interviews Horror in the Margins' very own Co-Host Tiffany Michelle Brown about her new feminist horror collection, How Lovely To Be a Woman: Stories and Poems.  We discuss the inspiration behind her most personal work, examine the terrifying consequences of societal conditioning and failings of white feminism, and celebrate unapologetically monstrous women.  

Content warnings include graphic violence, sexual harassment, body horror, fatphobia, cultural appropriation, and cultural fetishization.  All warnings are listed at the back of this book.

Tiffany expertly curated a playlist to accompany the book and set the mood:
