Bylines include Rolling Stone, NPR Music, The Guardian, Salon, Time, Billboard, The A.V. Club, Vulture, The Los Angeles Times, Stereogum, Cleveland Plain Dealer, and Las Vegas Weekly. She also contributed liner notes to the 2016 reissue of R.E.M.’s Out of Time and Game Theory’s 2020 collection Across The Barrier Of Sound: PostScript. Released in 2021, her 33 1/3 volume on Duran Duran's Rio is built around extensive original reporting, including interviews she conducted with band members and others involved with the success of the album.

Stevie Nicks in 50 Songs is a beautifully illustrated book goes beyond the glitter and shawls to explore the raw artistry, resilience, and magic that define Stevie Nicks’s five-decade career. From singing “Are You Mine” with her grandfather in Phoenix to becoming the first woman inducted into the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame twice, Stevie’s story is as sweeping and bold as her stage presence. Stevie Nicks in 50 Songs covers it all: her early musical roots, folk and country influences, first guitar at sixteen, and fateful harmony with Lindsey Buckingham on “California Dreamin’”—a moment that launched one of rock’s most complicated partnerships.
 
This is not just a music biography. It’s a deep dive into Stevie’s powerful songwriting and mythmaking. The book analyzes iconic tracks like “Rhiannon,” inspired by Welsh mythology, “Landslide,” written during a pivotal moment in her relationship with Buckingham, and “Stand Back,” created with an uncredited synth assist from Prince. It covers breakout Fleetwood Mac hits like “Dreams” and “Gold Dust Woman,” along with cult classics from the Buckingham Nicks era and her solo work, like “Edge of Seventeen.” The book also offers surprising insights into her personal life: her friendships, her struggle with addiction, her political engagement, and advocacy work. Nick's unmatched fashion legacy shines through these pages, too. A dedicated section explores her famous shawls and capes, her di Fabrizio boots, the mystical Rumours look, and her real-life wardrobe inspirations. Beyond the music and style, Stevie Nicks in 50 Songs dives into the artist's cultural impact, like her pop mentorship of artists Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, and more.
 
Featuring rare photos, extensive track breakdowns, and revealing quotes, Stevie Nicks in 50 Songs is not just a celebration of a career. It’s a celebration of a woman who twirled through heartbreak and fame and emerged bolder than ever.
