{"title":"Hailey Spencer","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHailey Spencer\u003c\/b\u003e has been described by her wife Elizabeth as “an absolute cloud of a girl.” While she has aged out of girlhood, she plans to remain a cloud as long as possible. She is the author of the poetry collections \u003ci\u003eStories for When the Wolves Arrive\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGlass Labyrinth\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as a lifelong folklore aficionado. In recent years, this folklore obsession has entailed much time spent browsing the Folklore Motif Index and complaining about misinterpretations of Cinderella. Her favorite fairy tale character is Baba Yaga from Slavic folklore. When not writing, she enjoys working in her garden, checking out DVDs at Scarecrow Video, and losing at video games that came out in 2001. She lives and writes in Seattle, Washington.

When they decline an invitation to his ball, the day starts again…and again. A bird smashes itself into glass, people blur into archetypes, and Isabella begins to change: consumed by something called the Hunger, and then by unimaginable appetites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo escape the story—and the teller who thinks she can control them with it—Olivia must obey, untangle, and break its narrative rules.
