Congratulations to Helen! I devoured this book in one day. It’s so deeply unsettling!

Looking forward to this, thanks for the interview. (Full disclosure: my story collection HUM came out in 2014 with FC2, so obviously, I love the title:)

"Can you talk about why you chose the title Hum?" Titles need to be short and grabby. Hard to get shorter and grabbier : )

I just finished reading Hum and was so happy to find this interview about her process. Thank you for sharing it!

Great interview! It was such a treat because HUM was my favorite read this year and I wondered about many of the things you asked. I found the book not only smart and chilling but also fun and touching—a book about family as much as it was about dealing with our near future. Loved her light touch with worldbuilding.
