Tori Telfer's book tour for CONFIDENT WOMEN: SWINDLERS, GRIFTERS, AND SHAPESHIFTERS OF THE FEMALE PERSUASION.
A fun Saturday afternoon chat with my girl Rebekah Sebastian! Free, but must register here to attend.
I’ll be talking at the Sisters in Crime conference about the role of villainous women in crime stories. This event is free and open to the public. Register here!
A rollicking event with my pal Emilie. Register for it here!
OOH this is gonna be a fun one.
For con women, it’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt—but as a con-loving public, most of us stop at the “fun and games” part. Why do we enjoy these rollicking tales so much, and forget the human cost so easily? Tori Telfer and Lyz Lenz will dive into the murky world of swindlers-turned-celebrities, and try to put the “anti” back in “antiheroine.”
Doing a solo talk (eek!) at my favorite Midtown Scholar! Come hang out. Register here!
Come have lunch with me! (On Zoom, of course.)
No registration required.

At WORD Bookstore in Brooklyn. Event description:
“Everyone does bad things when no one is watching, and no one captures that more aptly than Anna Snoekstra. Her thrillers are known for being intense, unique, and utterly creepy, able to paint portraits of human desperation with terrifying accuracy (and the occasional edge of freaky dolls). In her twisted third novel, The Spite Game, Snoekstra further unnerves readers, telling the story of a girl bullied in high school whose favorite game is exacting sweet, vicious revenge. Join us in Brooklyn as Anna discusses her new book with fellow writer Tori Telfer, known for her nonfiction book Lady Killers.

Anna Snoekstra is the bestselling Australian author of Only Daughter and Little Secrets. Her short films and music videos have screened around the world. Find her on instragram @snoekstra.

A night of spooky tales at Astoria Bookshop. Facebook event here!
Lady grifters. Evil queens. Murderesses. Women who commit crimes are a fascinating subculture—statistically rare, frequently forgotten, but then when things get really gory, they’re suddenly turned into legends (Lizzie Borden, anyone?). Why are we drawn to female criminals? What can lead a woman to kill? How does gender play out in the world of true crime? And which female criminals are you obsessed with?

“Telfer proves that you can stab, poison, and suffocate the predictable tropes about female killers and still write something salacious and entertaining.” -Caitlin Doughty, author of Smoke Gets In Your Eyes and From Here to Eternity
“With a breezy tone and sharp commentary, Telfer draws out the tired stereotypes with just enough wit and humor to make the topic of female murderers enjoyable.” -Publishers Weekly
