My ConFusion Schedule and Other News

I hope you all had a good start to 2019! I spent most of last week at Seton Hill University in Greensburg, PA for their winter Master of Fine Arts in Writing Popular Fiction residency. I met with new students and attended workshops offered by writers such as Kevin Hearne.

In other news, my weird rock-and-roll post-apocalyptic Western story “Diamante and Strass” is available for your listening pleasure at The Drabblecast:

I’m also pleased to announce that my story “Approaching Lavender” will be in the forthcoming American Gothic anthology from Flame Tree Press.
