Lessons from a Consentual Interogation

#1 Do not agree to meet at a bar. Although the interviewer may insist otherwise, alcohol may do more than simply "contribute to a more creative and compelling exchange of opinion".

#2 Do understand that all answers are final answers.

#3 Do not under any circumstances reveal a literary man crush, thereby turning any opportunity to meet the admired subject into a comical game of avoidance on par with sticking a soapy finger into a glass of floating pepper flakes (yeah, you know the joke).

Grandparents Heart Babysitting

NANO's Volume 6 Number 1 features my latest piece of flash fiction, "Grandparents Heart Babysitting". Huge thanks to the editors - certainly for the inclusion, but also, and perhaps more importantly, for their attention to detail, their push to get every word just right.

If you like things to read, short things, stories that move you and leave you wanting more, fictional flings, order your copy here.

Outside of Cars

Read my short story "Outside of Cars" in Corium Magazine's Issue 19.
I mean, if you want.
Just so you know what you're getting yourself into, here's a bit of my correspondence with the editor.
"Your story made me very uncomfortable, which means it made me feel something, which is what we look for at Corium. As long as it's well-written, of course! And your story is, so I am happy to publish it."
Results will more than likely vary.
