Here is the text of my keynote from the Bram Stoker Awards ceremony. It was a rant masquerading as a keynote. And in pure Becky fashion it is also a call to action.

Friendly reminder. If the project funds, your pledge will be charged on Jan 17. I kinda forgot that and when I pledged I was like "oh yeah." So if you haven't pledged yet...food for thought!
And you can configure ur reward. Pick what you actually want, add a tote or a shirt, etc

I'm still a bit in disbelief over this, so I'm going to keep talking about it until I'm convinced it's real. Downpour, my debut novel, has WON the indie fiction Book of the Year award from the Chicago Writers Association!

Preorders are live for HIBERNATOR, a horror anthology from Braced Books. I contributed a novelette called RECOVERY. Links below. Release date: 12/5.
The book is going to be amazing. If you check it out, you have my sincere thanks.
