New Publication! Tiny Points of Contact

Ivo Review has accepted my story Tiny Points of Contact for October publication. They are including the story in their first issue titled Connections. I’m so pleased to be included in this journal and am looking forward to seeing Tiny Points of Contact online sometime in October.

I wrote this story in 2015 and first submitted it in 2016. I have received over 60 rejections and have done at least four major rewrites, as well as reading an excerpt at an open mike night. I’ve liked the idea of this story since the beginning so I persevered with it and kept rewriting and submitting. Very glad to see it finally receive a publication.

Owning Scars: My Newest Published Story

The online journal The Write Launch published my short story Owning Scars. It is available to read here. I am very pleased that they accepted this one and quite happy to see it in print. While on a hike with his sister, the main character in the story experiences flashbacks which he fears reveal a darker side to his personality, a side he does not remember existing. With the help of his sister, and the increasingly disturbing flashbacks, he comes face to face with the ghost of who he was and his harmful actions long since buried. Here is the beginning as presented by The Write Launch. Thanks for reading.
