So, Portland author and generally cool guy (you should see the reception this dude gets at readings) Riley Michael Parker has released his novel, A Plague of Wolves and Women. And seriously, that should be all you need to rush out and buy the book, because with a title like that, how could you goContinue reading “New fiction from Riley Michael Parker”

Faulkner-Wisdom 2011
Last year, I was thrilled to find myself in a couple of finalist lists for the Pirate’s Alley Faulkner Society’s Faulkner-Wisdom Creative Writing Competition. So this year, I took a chance and sent in a new story, “Curl Up and Burn.” I’ve been waiting all summer for the results, and now I’m thrilled once againContinue reading “Faulkner-Wisdom 2011”
A lot of literary news
Between my new job reading for Jersey Devil Press, my recent publication in the awesome pitch issue of Sententia, and my wading into the deep, cool waters of the Portland literary scene, my authorial connections have grown exponentially in the past month or so. Which is awesome. But it also means that I know more coolContinue reading “A lot of literary news”
New publication
Remember when I was sitting in at Ryan Werner’s Our Band Could Be Your Lit project? Well, as of today, one of the stories from those sessions appears in issue 24 of the excellent Jersey Devil Press. The story is “Colony.” And I’m super-psyched, because JDP is awesome. You can also download a .pdf ofContinue reading “New publication”
New poetry from Michael Levan
My friend Michael Levan has been this week’s featured poet at Atticus Review (quite appropriate, since his son’s name is Atticus). His week is coming to an end, but take a moment to head over to Atticus Review and check out Michael’s poem “To My Wife Exiting the Church and Looking Forward to Our NewContinue reading “New poetry from Michael Levan”
New publication (this one’s big)
I’ve been sitting on this one for a while, waiting for news of its imminent arrival, but it’s been hard because I’m really excited about this one: issue 3 of Sententia is publishing an excerpt from my Civil War novel Hagridden (which long-time readers might remember from NaNoWriMo 2009). Today I got news that the issueContinue reading “New publication (this one’s big)”
Not really a new publication
Remember back almost a year ago when I wrote a little story based on Chris Van Allsburg’s “Uninvited Guests” from his book The Mysteries of Harris Burdick? It was for a Writer’s Notebook exercise,* and it turned out to be a lot of fun. Anyway, I’ve always enjoyed that story and I like revisiting it nowContinue reading “Not really a new publication”
Not-so-new publication
Back in the spring of 2010, I published a story in the online literary magazine Temenos. Later, they decided to select from their spring and fall issues to produce a small print anthology for that year, but time and budgets being what they are, it took a while to finish the project. I’d quite forgottenContinue reading “Not-so-new publication”
New fiction from Amos Magliocco
I love promoting the work of people I know, but here in the summer months most of my short-fiction friends suffer a dry spell of publications. Such is the nature of what we do: many of the venues that publish us are tied to academic institutions and therefore are tied to the academic calendar. SoContinue reading “New fiction from Amos Magliocco”
New fiction: the OBCBYL project, story #5
I am finished. My run at Our Band Could Be Your Lit is, today, officially over. My last story is online now. I had a blast doing it, and many thanks to Ryan Werner for making me sound cooler than I am (with only one exception, all those titles were his, and like any good editor, heContinue reading “New fiction: the OBCBYL project, story #5”
