House of Leaves – Mark Z. Danielewski
Part Eight: Chapter XIII
The Work
The thirteenth chapter. The maze is still empty but the chapter is full of death and loss. Our question this week: How old were you when you saw your first dead body?
The Guest
Sophie St. Thomas joins us to discuss sexuality and female empowerment, and your agency in evoking that power. Sophie is a prolific writer on a broad swath of subjects including sexual etiquette, human intimacy, witchcraft, and music.
You can find Sophie on Twitter @thebowiecat, on Instagram also @thebowiecat, and you can find samples of her work on her website sophiesainttthomas.com
NOTE: Teylor will be performing at Candlenights on 12/22 in WV. Tickets are pretty much all gone- but sometimes they pop up so if you want to attend keep your eyes peeled. More importantly the show’s proceeds will go to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Central West Virginia. If you’d like to give directly to this effort Rileigh Smirl has a go fund me campaign running here www.gofundme.com/be-a-candlenights-2017-star
