Praise for Amy DeBellis

“From the first short story I read, Amy's work has always reminded me of Palahniuk spun in the female experience. And talk about range: from macabre humor, to unsettling catharsis, to hopeful realism, to sci-fi and horror and contemporary litfic, she does it all. And she does it with a fraction of the energy the rest of us have.”

— Katlyn Wolff

“Exquisite prose and an undercurrent of existential themes are staples of Debellis’s work. When an author manages to nail all four of these aspects—plot, characters, setting, and language—it’s marvelous and deeply satisfying for me.”

— Natalie (Goodreads) 

“Amy DeBellis writes with ferocious conviction for truth. [Her] dedication to craft has enabled her to expertly construct rich worlds of her own making, ones that feel as authentic and troubled as the one we live in today.”

— Nicholas Claro, author of This is Where You Are: Stories
