THE FANTASIST

Hi there,

A new story, The Wavelength of Maybird, is up at Absent Willow Review.

Go check it out. I’m quite happy with this one. It’s quirky sci-fi..

Also, I was truly flattered when I stumbled onto an interview of  fellow writer Angel Zapata and he listed my story “Seven and Four” (Boston Literary Magazine, Summer 2009) as one of his two favorites. I was even more pleased after reading his work, because is a remarkably talented writer.

Go check out his interview here, and check out his site too.

Well, three new poems are up at various sites around the internet:

• New Bedlam, Autumn 1888, a creepy two POV piece is available as part of the New Bedlam Project, a great horror magazine which centers around the fictional city of New Bedlam. I contributed a bit of horrific history with this piece.

• The Alligator Xylophone, a poem about my son and being a father, was very well received at Every Day Poets, a great site which features a new poem every day.

• And last but not least is Flapjacks, a satirical shape-poem in which a wife apologizes to her husband about the night before over a nice breakfast. People just don’t write enough shape poems, in my humble opinion.
