VILE MEN is now officially out!
In preparation for my first signing event, I’ve been working on some fancy “business cards” to promote VILE MEN, using the online printing service, MOO. I tested the card quality with a selection of 10 different quotes from the collection, and the results were great!
I'm Rebecca Jones-Howe, a neo-noir writer and author of the short story collection, VILE MEN. My work has been featured in [PANK], Pulp Modern and Punchnel's, among other magazines. This site houses my writing profile and my blog, which features posts on writing, fashion, lifestyle + more. Want more?
