Ann Sterzinger owns the BLACK PILL SITCOM genre, previously known as dark comedy, embracing the bleakness with a giddy sense of fun. As the hero of her book NVSQVAM asks: "What now? Male cervical cancer?"
Sterzinger keeps Vanity Fair (the Thackeray book, not the magazine) and A Confederacy of Dunces on tap for inspiration and some Kingsley Amis books scattered about to remind her not to take herself (or you) too seriously.
Her other specialties include dystopian sci-fi, French to English translations, and living in Chicago without getting shot once.
