The Elements of the Short Story

Nope, this isn't an instructional blog post. "The Elements of the Short Story" is a short story of mine that appears in the new issue of the Vancouver-based lit magazine sub-Terrain. I think it might be my best story ever (though that isn't necessarily saying a lot—depends on your perspective!).

This story is nuts.

I am also pretty excited to be in an issue of the mag that also contains work by my friends Clint Burnham, Evie Christie, Kevin Spenst, Carlyn Zwarenstein, Tamara Faith-Berger, Matthew Firth, and Lillian Necakov.

That's the closest I've had to being at a party since Covid descended upon us.

News coming soon about my third short-story collection, coming out in fall 2022.

As they say in Xanadu,

Over and out.
