I’m pleased to share that a series of my 100-word stories entitled “A Posse of Parables” has been published in Tahoma Literary Review’s Issue 24. It’s a gorgeous print issue; you can order it here or listen to me read my piece on their SoundCloud site.

More good news

I’m thrilled to share news of two upcoming publications. Tahoma Literary Review will be publishing a series of my 100-word stories entitled “A Posse of Parables,” and Berkeley Fiction Review will be publishing my short story, “A Question of Karma,” in Vol. 43.

Persistence (and revision) pays off!

writer. editor. doodler. er.

I write.

I doodle.

I'm at work on my first book, a collection of linked short stories that follows a community of expatriates living on the southern coast of Spain.

I care about stuff. Like curing type 1 diabetes. And marriage equality. And rights for immigrants. And public radio. And espanol. And Frank O'Hara and Jennifer Egan and Federico Garcia Lorca and Tony Kushner. You know, cool stuff.

I make postcards that are also stories.

Sometimes I read stories and poems out loud.

Sometimes I go to conferences.

You can find my short stories, essays, poems and flash fictio in a variety of places in print and online. If you Google really hard, you might find the two short radio pieces I produced on a badass NPR affiliate in San Francisco.

This is where you can go to find out who I am.
