FLASH FICTION FRIDAYS ANTHOLOGY

My short story How We Lost the Children, One by One is included in Robert Vaughan’s excellent Flash Fiction Fridays anthology. The anthology recaps all of the stories read on WUWM’s Flash Fiction Fridays radio segment hosted by Robert Vaughan and Stephani Lecci. It’s a monster of a collection, and I’m just thrilled be a part of it. Thanks, Robert, for all of your support and everything you do.

Today is a banner day; Mud Luscious, HOUSEFIRE, & Thunderclap!

Lots of stuff to read!

Issue 15 of the always superb MUD LUSCIOUS includes my piece, COMPLEX MACHINERY, as well as work by many other fantastic writers such as Helen Vitoria. Read it! My thanks to editors J. A. Tyler and Andrew Borgstrom (whose works you should be reading as well)!

The wildly insane HOUSEFIRE has published my piece, WE SLEEP INSIDE IF WE SLEEP AT ALL. Don’t miss my bio there, written by Riley Michael Parker. As usual, it’s a great piece of writing all by itself. Thanks, Riley!

Don’t miss the stellar fifth issue of THUNDERCLAP, which includes my two poems, WORDS, and STIPULATION CLAUSE, RAPUNZEL_MOREOVER, as well as incredible works by many others such as Len Kuntz, Parker Tettleton, Sheldon Lee Compton, Bill Yarrow, and Scott Alexander Jones. There are just so many, I can’t list them all! Thanks Amanda, and thank you, Robert Vaughan!

[dt] interview and reading on WUWM’s Lake Effect

WUWM’s Lake Effect was kind enough to invite me to read and discuss my work with the talented Robert Vaughan on their series, Flash Fiction Friday. The segment is archived on the WUWM site and available for download or stream at any time. My gratitude to Robert Vaughan, Stephanie Lecci, and Bonnie North for their kindness and professionalism. Of course, I encourage you to listen to the whole segment, but if you’re really pressed for time, you can find me at about 5:45 in the program.
