Since last time - I've had a handful of new stories published. Since it makes sense to keep track of things like this - I'll be compiling the links to stories here.
If you missed it - to harken in the Spring, Deep South Magazine chose my precious little ditty entitled "Gardenia Blossoms" to be their cover story. It was my first attempt to focus on a romantic tale - it almost worked too...but someone had to die. They always have to die, you know? I also have always been fascinated with the idea of skunk love...nevermind that part.
Another recent addition is the story "Patience" which appeared for April Fool's Day in The Big Stupid Review (one of my favorite current publications). This story was an attempt to tell a full-fledged narrative using ONLY dialogue to move the action along. I think it worked, despite the fact that there is little to no action in this short story about standing in line. Yes, I was a bit put-off at the obnoxious lines to get into the 9/11 memorial. This is how I coped.
There are a few more lingering out there that I will post here once they go live in the various publications. One - a gripping horror story recounts a local legend anyone from Nash County, North Carolina will recognize - the Momeyer Ghost. That should be appearing in a print anthology sometime later this year (I think Halloween-time?).
The other is a companion to "Patience" entitled "Porcelain" - which is also somewhat gross in nature.
AND IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY EXPERIENCED THE MAGIC....
Journey to MATTROPOLIS - where bed bugs aspire to become poets. You're guaranteed to laugh, cry and possibly call in an exterminator.
