When “Old Man Proffitt” was published in The Museum of Americana a while back, I had no idea my story, set during the Iranian Revolution of 1979, would rhyme with the march of time.
“When” is a story about when it’s time to say when.
Mahalo to Professor Tyler McMahon and his team for giving this story a home in Hawai’i Pacific Review.
Along with many fine writers and artists, I am honored that my story, “To Whom Much Is Given,” has been nominated by Tom Dooley, editor of Eclectica, for the Best of the Net anthology.
In Scott Solomon’s Writing News, “Ode to Short Pump” looks back at a once-rural area of Virginia that inspired one of my published stories.
I am thrilled to launch a Substack. By way of Scott Solomon’s Writing News, I intend to delve into craft, literature, fiction, nonfiction, books, novels, stories, essays, flash, and more.
My first stack, “Hello, World,” pays homage to Elaine Palencia and her Red Herring Fiction Workshop, through which I learned how to write.
Alongside an assemblage of stellar writers and artists, I am honored to have a story published in Eclectica.
“To Whom Much Is Given” explores the expectations eroding a millennial’s well-being.
Thank you, Tom Dooley, for fighting the good fight as Eclectica’s editor since 1996.
Thank you, Benjamin Drevlow and Bull, for publishing “The Fray,” a story of mine delving into the perils of involuntary commitment to a substandard mental health facility.
I am elated that The Museum of Americana gave “Old Man Proffitt” a home.
