I’d been submitting stories to The Razor for a few years now, assuming long odds of ever being published there. After all, it’s free to submit, plus they pay, and they only publish one piece of fiction (and one non-fiction) per month. So they take twelve stories per year. And my story, “Over the Hill, […]

I'll link to any new publications here and, one of these days, I may actually do a little blogging too.
“The Point of Possible Return” at Lowlife Lit Press
Charmed for a third time over at Lowlife Lit Press with publication of “The Point of Possible Return,” a twisty speculative story, told by one man from multiple points of view. But again, one man (you’ll get it if you read it!). This one has some salty language, and starts a bit rough, but I […]

It’s also exciting to […]

I kind of thought, well, yeah, they definitely won’t like these characters, because the […]
“Present in Time” at After Dinner Conversation
And just that quick we’re kicking off 2025 (oh, writing gods, please continue to be kind!), with my second appearance in After Dinner Conversation with “Present in Time.” Unfortunately, you can’t read this one for free, but it is available right now as an actual magazine (with paper, remember those!) with an even more affordable […]
