Like the cat they play on their near-daily livestreams, M.J. Beasi has lived multiple lives as a singer, actor, songwriter, journalist, arts educator, and founder of a teen opera workshop in western Massachusetts, determined to tell stories across as many mediums as possible. As an educator, M.J.'s job is to help teens discover and celebrate their true voices. As an author, they hope to continue that tradition. In the off-hours, M.J. can be found reading, gaming, binging cartoons with their spouse, and wishing they knew how to draw. Keep up with M.J.'s many lives at mjbeasi.com. I Was a Teenage Death God is their debut novel.
""Wrapped in humor and hauntings, the real marrow of this story is a fierce love for queer youth. Seamlessly balancing sharp wit against a tender emotional core, Beasi holds a mirror to readers and quietly demands to know how far each of us would go to change an unfair fate. Angry but hopeful, this stunning debut is both a love letter and a call to action, and marks the beginning of a career to watch."" --Stonewall honoree, H.E. Edgmon ""Written with so much heart, I Was A Teenage Death God brings us back to the beloved YA touchstone of sassy, fast-paced supernatural adventures--this time with an all-queer twist."" --Andrew Joseph White, New York Times-bestselling author of The Spirit Bares Its Teeth ""A compulsively readable whirlwind of ghosts, death powers and messy family history, with a compelling T4T love story at its core, this book will steal hours of your life in the best way!"" --Elias Cold, author of The Duke Steals Hearts and Other Body Parts ""This is an unapologetically queer story rife with dark family secrets, twists, and thrills--it'll haunt you long after you've read the last page."" --Louangie Bou-Montes, author of Til the Last Beat of My Heart
