New Fiction in FLAUNT Magazine

My short story "The Wilderness" has been published in the L.A./London issue of FLAUNT Magazine, a fashion and culture magazine distributed in over 32 countries. All of the creative writing in this issue fits the billboard-culture theme, and my story is no exception. But this is really the Beyoncé and John Baldessari issue, and I'm thrilled to be part of it!

The issue just hit newsstands and you can read my story online, along with great essays on billboard culture by Michael Jaime-Becerra, Robert Landau, and Kenny Schachter. I'd like to once again thank editors Amy Slocum and Ryan Ellis for publishing my fiction! You can pick up a copy of the magazine at bookstores and newsstands across the world or read the story right here. Thanks for reading! 

Reading at The Pygmalion Festival - 9/26

I was invited to read at The Pygmalion Festival in Urbana-Champaign, IL later this month (9/26). I'm really excited about this. Now in its 11th year, The Pygmalion Festival features bands, writers, artists, and techies all showcasing their wares. I'm thrilled to be part of the literary lineup and Lit Crawl along with Brian Evenson, Aaron Burch, Elena Passarello, Colin Winnette, Jennine Capó Crucetand, and a bunch of other really awesome authors. If you're in the Midwest later this month you should come to this festival. There is sure to be great music, readings, art, and tech discussions. I hope to see you there! More info here.
