There’s No Way I’d Die First is now out in the world in hardcover, e-book and audio. Thank you so much for all your support leading up to the release! Sending so much appreciation to my editor, agent, early readers and everyone who read earlier half-baked versions of this book. Thank you to the online writing community for your enthusiasm ever since I announced TNWIDF. I’m forever grateful for your time and support.


I plan to celebrate this milestone (cake, please!) It certainly is a dream come true. I might even summon up some supernatural courage and drop by at a few bookstores!
It feels surreal to hold this book in my hands. Writing it was a challenge. Writing horror for teens is the realization of a major writing goal. I hope readers enjoy this wild ride of horror tropes and movie references. It’s very meta. There’s glam, gore and plenty laughs, and moments where falling asleep might be a really bad idea.
Thank you to all who pre-ordered and plan to buy during the first week. These numbers are really important to a debut author. Also you can request TNWIDF at your local library and on the Libby app.
Can’t wait for you to meet Noelle and her party guests!
My book launch is happening tonight (5 September) at Astoria Bookshop in Queens. If you’re in NYC I’d love to see you. Get your ticket here!
Happy reading!
Lisa
