This gal's Flash Fiction "Burnt Springs, Alabama" is shortlisted for the VERA awards at The Vestal Review. The polls show me in the middle of the pack, duking it out with the boys--may I please have your vote? --

Read the stories here and click on Part 2 of the poll. http://www.vestalreview.org/vestal-review-flash-fiction-2014-award//

Thank you!

That feeling you have when you're looking for something you've already written and can't find it, then wonder if you just dreamed it. That.

Anyone listening to S-Town from Serial and This American Life? Wow. I'm riveted.

Of course, I write about southern ironies like this: https://twitter.com/CatPoetic/status/854004159787520000

I think I'll set a goal to break 200 community points by the end of the year. Putting it out there, universe.

You'll get 5 pts for your anniversary, so just 3 pts to go? Seems doable!

Ah, yes true. Maybe I should aim higher :).

Latest news-- "The Best Small Fictions 2015" is on bookstore shelves and my chapbook "921b Elysian Fields Avenue (RETURN TO SENDER)" will be published shortly from Kentucky Story (KYstory.net). The hybrid narrative is written in a series of letter poems and may seem familiar to readers at WDC.

Also-- I'm signed up for the NaNoWriMo craziness so look for me there (same handle).

Congrats, Nova.

For a publication that is all your own, but not part of an anthology, please send me a link to where online your book is being sold, so I can add it to "List of Published Books by WdC Authors "

for reviewers in "Published Books of WdC Authors Forum "

From a late night email: "Congratulations, one of your works of fiction were selected for inclusion in The Best Small Fictions 2015. Out of hundreds of nominations, we narrowed down the field to 105 finalists. From there, guest judge Robert Olen Butler was asked to choose 55 winners to appear in the 2015 issue, due out from Queen’s Ferry Press in October. You are one of those winners."
