one of my notable essays newly available online

5/17/2025

 
Len Kuntz at AWP encouraged me to put together flash collections even if they weren't themed like THE MISSING GIRL, and this past week I've been reviewing old material for a chapbook contest. I'm finding links that are defunct (so many of these magazines are gone!). And one that's been fixed. The archives at GHOST PROPOSAL disappeared long ago, and at some point they must have gotten them back up, along with my lyric essay "Visitations." "Visitations" was awarded a Notable in BEST AMERICAN ESSAYS 2020, though it wasn't available to read at the time.

good news and less good

5/13/2025

 
First the less good, a shakeup in management at CRAFT, the magazine where I've been the creative nonfiction editor since they started publishing creative nonfiction in 2020, the flash cnf editor since 2024. Never good when someone's suddenly fired. Especially someone who's been doing a good job. Waiting to see what's next.

That was yesterday. Now today. Woke up to an acceptance from HUNGER MOUNTAIN REVIEW! My crazy lyric essay, inspired by reading Geoff Dyer in my overgrown backyard, will come out in July. I've always loved HUNGER MOUNTAIN. Steve has published there, but I never have.

Wasn't sure where to send this oddball essay, so I started with just a handful of great magazines and it paid off.

​Of course there's a word I really want to cut from the version I sent to them. I'm sure they're used to obsessive writers and will cooperate.
