“This whole book is but a draught—nay, but the draught of a draught. Oh, Time, Strength, Cash, Patience.”
Herman Melville

Thanks. I’ll take a look.

I'm wondering if anyone has a line on where to submit novellas, 15,000 words to 25,000 words. I've published some long work in good places, but I'm looking for any new venues for literary fiction that's too long for most journals. #writingcommunity #novella 📚💙📚🖋️📚 #booksky

I think there was a river involved…

I’m hoping for a Mariners Brewers World Series. The Drunken Sailor Series!

Thanks. Ursula Le Guin blurbed my second book, and I’m still grateful.

I’m across the pond… I wonder if the exhibition is going to travel.

Very happy to have new work forthcoming in @fabulistmag.bsky.social . I’ll post again when my ogre story is up. But here’s a link to my Pushcart-nominated story from 2020. #booksky #writingcommunity 💙📚💙

The Age of the Cuttlefish > The Fabulist Words & Art

This sly, wry, surreal, and vaguely Lovecraftian parable is an apt season closer for the apocalyptic summer of 2020, and an unnerving point of entry for the even more uncertain autumn that's still ahead.
