Live Virtual Launch Celebration of Lifelike Creatures 

Join me, Rebecca Baum, Sept. 17 at 7pm EDT, to celebrate the launch of my novel, Lifelike Creatures, on “Book Spiel,” a live Zoom event hosted by Pam Van Dyk and Regal House Publishing.

Karol Hoeffner, author of Knee Deep, will join us as well for a lively discussion about ghosts, “irredeemable” characters, and writing fiction that centers on real environmental and natural disasters. The event will also include readings, audience Q&A, and book giveaways.

Advance registration required. 

Karol and I will also share details of our Fall 2020 virtual book tour. Preorder Lifelike Creatures and Knee Deep and come along!

Lifelike Creatures

Enter the Southern Gothic world of Terrefine, Louisiana where 13-year-old Tara Saint-Romain struggles to keep her addicted mother from self-destructing—even as a catastrophic sinkhole threatens the entire town.

“Baum’s impressive debut is plainly told in vivid descriptions and unapologetic language.”

Booklist

Knee Deep

Knee Deep follows sixteen-year-old Camille Darveau’s journey through apocalyptic post-Katrina New Orleans. Like all good tales born of the bayou, hers involves the dead, the living and the one trapped in the brackish waters between heaven and hell. It is the story of true love and true disaster, both equally hard to survive.

“A ghostly love story that’s heartfelt and bittersweet.” Kirkus Reviews

Looking forward to celebrating with you!
