Last night I received an email notifying me that my story "The Lupercal" had been shortlisted for a flash fiction contest sponsored by the Louisiana State University of Alexandria, and my story "The Yolk of the Moon" had won second place. I'd have been happy for even one of these things, but to be the only person with my name on the list twice felt like quite the accolade. When "The Yolk of the Moon" goes to print, I'll share it with you. "The Yolk of the Moon" is about the last days of an old egg-sucking dog. "The Lupercal" is a story about an ancient participant in the Lupercalia.

Just now, I received an email saying The Masters Review love my flash memoir piece "The T-Bone" and will be featuring it in their New Voices Section. It is about the time I was in a bad car accident.

In other news, I just finished the first round of edits for my short story "Daisy Chain," a joyous piece of sci-fi smut that will be published in Against the Wall, Under the Armor, an Erotic / Romance Sci-Fi Fantasy Anthology published by Nat 1 Publishing. If you've been reading my blog for a while, you may have read an early incarnation of this story. I wrote it about twenty years ago. Nice to see it getting more recognition now. I'm proud of my smut.
