    Every year I do the Clarion Write-a-thon for 6 weeks to raise money for a great writers’ workshop that changed my life. I use this as a time of creative renewal and mad experiments.

To quote from the anthology’s call: “Thirteen” is the first month of a new yearly cycle, wherein the old skins have been shed and the newborns are still learning…

    I had the honor of writing the introduction to Ken Schneyer’s short story collection “The Law and the Heart.” I’m sad I’ve haven’t been able to write about it earlier, my website breaking had the worst timing!
