Author Talk: Renee Decamillis

On Saturday, February 22nd from 2:00 to 3:30, LPL will host Maine author Renee Decamillis for a reading from her recent novella The Bone Cutters. This free, public program will take place in the Library’s Jeanne Couture Conference Room.

The Bone Cutters, published in 2019 through Eraserhead Press as part of their 2019 New Bizarro Authors Series, tells the story of Dory, a psychiatric patient who finds herself threatened by a group of fellow patients who harvest highly addictive bone dust from the living. Disbelieved and alone, Dory ends up on the run, fighting for her life, trying to avoid getting “dusted” by The Bone Cutters.

Renee Decamillis is a member of the Horror Writers Association, The New England Horror Writers, and the Horror Writers of Maine. She has her BA in psychology from the University of Southern Maine, earned her MFA in Popular Fiction Writing from the Stonecoast Graduate Program, and attended Berklee College of Music as a music business major with guitar as her principle instrument. Renee is a former model, school rock band teacher, creative writing teacher, private guitar instructor, A&R rep for an indie record label, therapeutic mentor, psychological technician, and preschool teacher. She is also a former gravedigger; she can get rid of a body fast without leaving a trace, and she is not afraid of getting her hands dirty. Renee lives in the woods of southern Maine with her husband, their son, and a house full of ghosts.


The event is free to the public and will conclude with book sales and signing. For more information, contact the library at lplreference@gmail.com or call Josh Gauthier at 513-3136.
