Vermont is thisclose

Days away from leaving for the residency.  Problems packing:  I want to take all the books in my writing room!

It's scary -- the idea that all I have to do is write.  That I can be supported, to be allowed to follow my dream.  But I'm going to move on past that feeling and honor the time set aside for me and write.

oooooh, another acceptance

Counting the days. . .

headed to Vermont for the residency the beginning of June.

I'm really really really going to try to finish up those 65ish stories I've been lugging through the years, including four which would complete a linked short story collection.  Wouldn't that be something?

An acceptance and a publication here, here, and here

I have a work upcoming in Change Seven Magazine.

My tiny work "Longing" just came out in  Thrice Fiction

and "Watson's Girl" in Miracle Monocle

and a photograph "wind warriors" is in Twisted Vine Literary Arts Journal
