There has been a lot of writing in July. Some brief highlights, then I’m going to try something new. 

Highlights:

  • Short story called “Eggs” about a family’s trip to the beach

    • already been rejected by one lit mag, waiting to hear back from about a dozen others

  • Finished the ß copy of The Paper Island, an 83k word work of speculative fiction

    • it’s out to some friends and family. If you’d like to read this draft version and let me know your thoughts, get in touch!

What I’ve been reading:

  • A lot of Haruki Murakami
