Hark! A Strange Light on the Horizon!

 

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that the second edition of Modern Whore will be published in collaboration with Strange Light, the provocative, innovative, and experimental imprint of Penguin Random House Canada! WOOHOO!!!!

That’s right, baby! Modern Whore is going MAINSTREAM! From self-published to the biggest publisher in Canada! 

This means Nicole and I can finally focus on what we’re actually good at: less shipping of books, and more making of art. I’ll get to work with the incredible Haley Cullingham as my editor, and Nicole will work closely with Strange Light to creative direct Modern Whore into a sexy new “sister, not a twin” second edition. A publishing deal also means getting exposure to a larger audience through a wider print run — global domination, here we cum! And, for the first time, Nicole and I will receive an advance to make Modern Whore. Getting paid for our work! HUGE. This will help sustain us as we up the ante on a total revamp and expansion of the book that will now be even MORE epic than previously planned!

While we were all looking forward to the November release of Modern Whore as 2020’s only saving grace, our publication is now slated for autumn 2021. For those of you who have pre-ordered the book, we are so grateful — we promise it'll be worth the wait. 

Working with Strange Light is a dream come true. Modern Whore is a self-published book that exists by sheer will power alone. Though we’ve had lots of help along the way, Nicole and I are the two-woman crew who brought this little bundle of joy into the world. We’ve learned how to print books, distribute them to bookstores, and plan book launches. We did these things ourselves out of necessity, and now we can finally return to just making the best damn sex work art book ever made. 

Thank you for your support. Onward and upward!
