New in Noo Journal: “Baby Love”
I have a super-short fiction piece in the current issue of Noo Journal.
My work-from-home scheme fell on hard times and we had to move to another place, a property I’d bought as an investment, but had never planned on living in. It smelled of dogs and children. Even after we’d been there for many years, we found rawhide bones and pacifiers behind the refrigerator, under the stove, and in the basement.

New in elimae: A Microfiction Piece
I’m so happy to be in elimae! I remember that site from years and years ago, before I even thought of writing anything but screenplays. They’ve since outlasted legions of literary sites by years.
I mean YEARS. (They were founded in 1996.)

InDigest fiction
The fine folks at Indigestmag.com have put up a short story of mine, The Missing Years. It’s from a novel I’ve been working on. The story is an early draft.
It’s so good to read something from the novel. At least it’s good for me, because lately I’ve been writing stories inspired by 1990s power ballads. The stories vary wildly from the novel (for one thing, the “power ballad” stories are meant to be funny).
Maybe I should stick with the novel? The novel is set in the South. The power ballad stories are, too, but. . . I digress.
InDigest is such a nice magazine. Take a look.
