Join us to celebrate the new novel Werewolf Movie by SMFA alum Stephen St. Francis Decky, available now from Frayed Edge Press! Stephen will discuss how writing fiction fits into a multi-disciplinary art practice and share excerpts from the book. Set in the late 1980s South Jersey/Philadelphia music scene and told in the first person by the four main characters, the novel straddles the intersection of horror, humor, and surrealism. It ultimately stands as a treatise on the ferocity and urgency of creativity as well as the predatory aspects of the music industry.
