Show Notes
For our fifth tropisode, we're talking WITCHES with Angela Slatter.
She is the author of the supernatural crime novels Vigil (2016), Corpselight (2017) and Restoration (2018) (from Jo Fletcher Books), as well as eight short story collections, including The Girl with No Hands and Other Tales, Sourdough and Other Stories, The Bitterwood Bible and Other Recountings, and A Feast of Sorrows: Stories. Vigilwas nominated for the Dublin Literary Award in 2018.
She has recently signed a two-book deal with Titan Books for Blackwater and Morwood, gothic fantasies set in the world of the Sourdough and Bitterwood collections − both of which involve witches. Lots of witches. She is the author of the novellas, Of Sorrow and Such (Tor.com) and Ripper (in Horrorology:The Lexicon of Fear) − again, more witches.
She has won a World Fantasy Award, a British Fantasy Award, a Ditmar, an Australian Shadows Award and six Aurealis Awards. And has a lifelong interest in, you guessed it, witches.
