We are joined by recently New York Times cited author Cynthia Pelayo about her book, Children of Chicago, as well as her short story writing, genre-bending, and the human elements of horror. We admit, much gushing did occur.
Cynthia is a poet and author from Chicago who has been twice nominated for the Bram Stoker Award for “superior achievement” in dark fantasy and horror writing. She is the author of the new book, Children of Chicago, published by Agora/Polis as well as Into the Forest and All the Way Through, Loteria, Santa Muerte, The Missing, and Poems of My Night, a contributing author to multiple copies of the Gothic Blue Book series, the anthologies She’s Lost Control and Halldark Holidays, and an editor for the anthologies Latinx Screams and We are Wolves.
