My short story, “Then Come Home to Settle,” is in the current issue of PANK.

My review of Patricia Henley’s new story collection, Other Heartbreaks, is in the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

My review of Pollock’s new novel, The Devil All the Time, is in today’s Richmond Times-Dispatch.

My short story, “Carolina Mill, 1932,” is in the current issue of The Sun:

“In the spring of 1932when I was twelve years old — the last year of my childhood, as I understood it — my grandfather left the farm and came to live with us.”

The Sun is a beautiful magazine, and this might be the peak of my literary career.

My short story, “A Storybook Home,” is in the current issue of The Normal School:

“They used to make love to keep warm.  They used to make love to kill time, to make up, to show off, to fight cancer.  Huddled together in Adams Morgan—cold nights after a meal in the Ethiopian restaurant along 18th, rats scurrying across the sidewalk near a young Cuban woman handing out fliers for a rave—they used to walk back to the Dupont Metro, go home and make love.”

I’ve just started dipping into the magazine, and it’s really stunning. Check it out regardless of my work.

This is my last word on Walker Percy for now, a commentary piece in today’s Richmond Times-Dispatch.

My story, “The Death of Jacob Delaney,” is now available in the summer 2010 issue of the South Dakota Review:

“The image of frozen cattle would stay with David Weatherall long after the shock of Jacob Delaney’s death in the blizzard of 1948.”
