Amber Dean, author of Hysterical, writes psychologically immersive horror centered on female obsession, intimacy, and power. Drawing on her lived experience in New York City’s nightlife scene, her work explores desire without moral apology.

Join us as we discuss vengeful women, female rage, love vs. romance, intimacy as a shackle, obsession as logic, and the different between likable and compelling characters.
