New Title Announcement – DON’T SCRATCH / HOW I LEARNED TO READ

New Title Announcement - DON'T SCRATCH - HOW I LEARNED TO READ

Today we’re excited to announce “Don’t Scratch / How I Learned to Read“, a new split chapbook by Ai Jiang and Nicole Dieker.

The split chapbook was designed by Alan Lastufka. When held one way, the chapbook presents Ai’s story; when flipped over, it presents Nicole’s story. The two stories meet in the middle of the chapbook.

Ai Jiang is the author of I AM AI, Linghun, and many short stories. She is also the co-editor (with Christi Nogle) of Wilted Pages: An Anthology of Dark Academia.

Nicole Dieker is the author of the Larkin Day Mystery Series, The Biographies of Ordinary People, and numerous writing guide articles, including some for our very own magazine.

This split chapbook is currently exclusive to our End of Summer Reading Bundle, but may be released separately at a later date.
