From hair-dos to hair-don'ts — this killer curls into chaos. During this episode of On the Air with Florenza, I'm joined by the phenomenally talented author St. Sukie De la Croix to discuss his newest book, The Hunt for the Hairdo Killer. Enter the wild, high-camp world of Palm Springs, where curly-top conspiracies meet slapstick sleuthing in Twilight Manors in Palm Springs: The Hunt for the Hairdo Killer. When retired-detective duo Brian & Stéphane stumble upon a madman wiring women's curlers with lethal surprises, the stakes go higher than a bouffant. Mobsters, poodles, a grieving cat named Fish Paste, trigger-happy gardeners filming Godzilla vs. Frida Kahlo, giraffes, and even a wardrobe-malfunctioning waitress licked by the “Forever Marilyn” statue—everything's off the hook and off the rails. If you thought tradition was tame, this book proves you've never witnessed a bad perm gone full thriller. Written by archival legend St. Sukie De la Croix—historian, raconteur, and the gay Studs Terkel of the Midwest—this is satire, absurdity, and mystery dressed in drag and ready to party. #OntheAirwithFlorenza #FlorenzaDeniseLee #FlorenzaLee #AuthorsOnTheAir #HairdoKiller #StSukieDeLaCroix #TwilightManors #CampyMystery #LGBTQReads #PalmSpringsMayhem

“Boy wonder by day. Boy toy by night.” In this candid conversation, host Ian Henzel talks with Jobert Abueva Reed about Boy Wander—a memoir that moves from Manila to Kathmandu, Bangkok, and Tokyo, then across the U.S., tracing a brilliant student leader's secret life in 1970s Japan. As a child TV personality and top performer at an all-boys Catholic international school, Jobert seemed destined for greatness. After class, he lived another reality—turning tricks with foreign guests at Tokyo's Imperial Hotel—while trying to reconcile family expectations, faith, and the truth of who he was. They discuss how a pre-AIDS coming-of-age shaped the book's urgent honesty, why Tokyo felt uniquely safe, and how an episodic writing process became a propulsive narrative. The episode is equal parts craft talk and cultural history—about surviving, remembering, and finally being seen. What we cover The “golden boy” mask: student council, debate, track, theater—and the secret after dark Tokyo as a safe(-r) haven for queer exploration in the 1970s Pre-AIDS context and how it frames risk, shame, and liberation Turning raw episodes into memoir: structure, voice, and truth-telling Reconciling family values, Catholic schooling, and personal identity Migration, transience, and finding home across continents Why diverse LGBTQ voices matter to younger readers now Get the Book:

A dash of mystery, a sparkle of magic, and all things cozy! Elle interviews fellow cozy authors in this bookish podcast from Authors on the Air. Today on the podcast, meet Emily Krempholtz, author of the upcoming cozy fantasy romance Violet Thistlewaite is Not a Villain Anymore! Elle and Emily talk about redemption arcs, the joy of side characters, the ultimate scrapbook of stories, and more. Happy listening! Emily's Bio: Emily Krempholtz is an author, editor, book coach, ghostwriter, and storyteller. When she's not writing, Emily loves to hike, travel, ride horses, bake bread, decorate cakes, play board games, and drink more tea than is probably healthy. She reads just about as many fantasy and romance novels as she can get her hands on, and spends a lot of time camped out in her neighborhood cafes, writing. Emily lives in sunny Colorado, where you can usually find her in the mountains—either hiking (and pretending to be a character in a novel) or curled up in a hammock with a good book (and also pretending to be a character in a novel). She's on a lifelong quest to discover the magic in the world, and has a sneaking suspicion that the written word is where she'll find it.

The award-winning first book in her Alchemical Tales series, Beauty and the Alchemist, finds amateur sleuth Red mixed up with murderous beasts and moody beauties, and a set of missing books besides!
